Print() on Firefox not working correctly

So after hours of trial and error, I just figured out it is not me or my code, it ist Firefox who just can't handle the new Print() function correctly. No matter what I did, the scaling always ended up in a complete mess.

Am I the only one with this problem?

    @AlexN thanks for reporting this ... have the same observation. Chrome working, firefox not.

    playing around with print settings for just "that" app it is not very user friendly.

    @Pstork1 I can reproduce also in the published app

    Setting the scaling to 130 is working, "print background" is doing nothing.
    But nevertheless would I expect to have it working out of the box without telling our users what settings they have to to set when printing with different browsers.
    In Chrome it is working just like it should. Not sure if Microsoft or Mozilla should be to blame 😉

    In the print dialog box, you have to check "print background" (unchecked by default). You'll probably have to adjust print scale manualy in the same menu.

    Is this actually running the Published app? or running it in the Preview while designing the app?  Firefox is a supported browser for running apps, but isn't supported for running Power Apps Studio.  So if this is while Previewing the app you may want to switch to a different browser.
