Hi.
Thanks for your bug report. Were you trying to print to
the printer named "lotis" (which is the default printer for
e51-075-8)? I noticed that spooling is currently disabled
for that printer, and it appears that firefox does not report
any error when it fails to spool the print request.
Printing from firefox should work fine on Solaris when the
desired printer is enabled.
Thanks again for reporting this.
