Don't print gifs. They are a horrible format for printing. You want to print at atleast 150 dots per inch. Gifs are 72. Your printer is probably making it higher resolution so it will look better. This makes your picture smaller on paper.

I would make a gif version that people could see on the web but save the actual file to a tiff, pict, bmp, targa, or something more printable. You could even really save it as a jpg just higher compression. Just link from the gif preview to the larger file. This should initiate a download to open in the users own editor. You could even have links to free editors off your site.

Don't trust a browsers to render or print graphics.
