https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+question/76868

Was printing from a blog site which I have done before.  Got up to 12 of 36, when it started over at 1 of 12.  Shut off the printer (Epson CX8400 series) and clicked off printer icon at top of page hoping that would clear memory.  Phoned Epson trouble shoot line, they had me do certain functions, and told me the printer has no memory, so their is nothing I can do, as the scanner copy printed fine, said I should contact assistance from Firefox/Linux/whatever; and guess what? here I am. The moment I turn on the printer, it begins printing the same thing all over again, it is driving me crazy and wasting paper and ink.
I seem incapable of turning it off.  I tried unplugging the printer, but that does no good, the only way is to disconnect the printer from the computer, but as soon as I reconnect and turn on the printer, it starts all over again.
