In Firefox, after I click the "print" within the document window (i.e. not the "print" on the browser toolbar) I get two dialog screens and on the second there's an option to print comments. But the comments (highlighted with colored backgrounds) don't actually print. In IE I don't get that second dialog -- the Google docs print doesn't work. At the moment, if I want to print the comments, I copy and paste the document to OpenOffice Writer (or Word) and print from there. I've reported the problem -- but can't find any notes about it on the web (except for a few blog entries saying "don't expect print to work"). Something has changed in the printing of comments.
