I actually use both firefox and opera here, and both print just 
fine using CUPS.  Some differences I notice between the two
are that firefox starts faster, but loads pages slower than 
opera.  Firefox works somewhat better on some plugins like
firing up streaming music to xmms, although that could be
cured if I bothered. Opera is free, minus the open source
part.
