Depending on the exact layout of the page/site, I would suggest trying
one of the following:
Print Friendly: http://www.printfriendly.com/
Print What You Like: http://www.printwhatyoulike.com/
Readability: https://www.readability.com/
I find that usually at least one of these will do a good job of
tidying things up for printing - or saving, for that matter.
Also, you can get Firefox to reduce the margins at top and bottom to
quite small (0.1 cm I believe), though you can't eliminate them
completely. If you combine that with using Print What You Like to
remove unwanted content, you should be able to reduce your page count
substantially.
Or, because Print Friendly, for example, lets you convert to a PDF
then either save or print, you can then use the options in Acrobat
Reader for headers/footers rather than those in Firefox when you
actually go to print.
