This is a frequent issue for me, and is best explained by example.
When I print the page at the link below on Firefox 42 (Portrait, 100% scaling, “shrink to fit page” NOT ticked), the result is one largely blank page (except for the article title), then *one page* of the article text (the first part), and then the third page has nothing bur footer material from beneath the article. I.e., most of the article text is missing from the printout. (Print Preview looks the same as what I described.)
But when I print the same page in IE 10, everything prints out normally, i.e., I get a longer printout with nothing missing.
Why is this, and more importantly how can I make Firefox print the whole article?

NOTES:
(1) There are many pages, e.g., Facebook, or comments sections below news articles, where the printout is very incomplete in *both* browsers -- typically showing just the first page of posts, or none at all. But my question is about the (not-infrequent) cases such the example above where IE prints the whole article while Firefox doesn’t.
(2) There are some pages -- this one included -- where FF’s often-helpful-for-printing “Reader View” feature largely provides a workaround to this kind of issue. However Reader View can often cause formatting and graphics to be lost or “jumbled.” And it doesn't work on all pages. With the page in this example it does a nice job, with just one area where some numbers in a few tables run together to the left, but in a way where it is not hard to figure out what was actually intended. But again in some other cases it does a poor job. Regardless, a “truer” printout like IE’s would be preferable for this page, if there is a way to do the same in FF.
