Remove height limit for printing thead

Question

I encountered something weird as I was playing around with this. In Firefox, when the height of a div inside the thead is more than 252px, the header will not get repeated. Tried with Chrome, issue happens at about 262px. Has anyone encountered this before? Is there a way to ignore or reset this limit?

@media print {
  @page {
    size: auto;
    /* auto is the initial value */
    margin: 0mm 0mm 0mm 0mm;
    /* this affects the margin in the printer settings */
  }
  thead {
    display: table-header-group;
  }
  #pgbrk {
    page-break-after: always;
  }
}

@media screen {
  @page {
    size: auto;
    /* auto is the initial value */
    margin: 0mm 0mm 0mm 0mm;
    /* this affects the margin in the printer settings */
  }
  thead {
    display: block;
  }
}
