So it seems to NOT be an iceweasel problem but something else. Now to find out what that something is. Isn't linux fun! Thanks again CamaleonWow... if the upstream firefox also lacks for that printing option I don't even know where to look at (fluxbox, firefox...) :-? Have you considered in opening a bug report in Firefox's bugzilla? Maybe they can point you to the right direction.
Prior to the following tests i tried both icewm and blackbox. The problem, (no Print Selection option available) remains. I have just completed a test of the following: Stable running iceweasel 3.5.16 Print Selection available YES Testing (upgraded from squeeze 6.0.3) iceweasel 8.0-3b1 NO Testing-2 9 (from Debian testing Cut) iceweasel 8.0-3b1 NO Sid ( from upgraded debian-6.0.3/wheezt/sid) iceweasel 9.0.1-1 NO Wheezy/Sid (from upgraded debian-6.0.3/) iceweasel 9.0.1-1 NO Mozilla firefox iceweasel 9.0.1-1 NO Mozilla Aurora iceweasel 9.0.1 NONote: I could not test printing on Stable due to the cup fixes for a USB to Parallel adapter are in Wheezy and Sid. I did not check backports for the required files.
It seems that the problem is upstream Mozilla code, not Debian. Hope this get fixed sooner or later but I am not holding my breath as, according to a Google search, this problem has been reported since 2008. Wayne
