Try use a different browser, probably won't fix the problem.

Disable JavaScript to see if the website falls back onto a non javascript version, probably not if they can't even debug their code.

Highlight the content, copy and paste into Word. It should carry over pictures and everything.

Or paste into wordpad if word displays all sorts of tables and boxes.

Get FireBug for Firefox for debugging.

Mind you if what I think you're trying to do is open a page formatted for print in a popup window, you don't need to. Instead, take your original page, copy the css call so it appears twice in the head, comment out one of them, rename the uncommented one you're working on to something like somestyle-print.css, copy original style sheet and rename as this and format the page for print through that by applying display:none; to things like images, varying the fonts and other stuff. When you're happy with how it prints, uncomment the original display style and add the appropriate media attribute to like what's below. No JavaScript, no horrible popups just some simple css. Never yet come across a printer which it didn't work in.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" media="screen" /><!-- screen style sheet -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style-print.css" media="print" /><!-- print style sheet -->
