[SOLVED] Firefox won't print

jugula · 09-14-2009, 03:47 AM

Greetings,

Looking for a little help in printing form Firefox 3.5.3... for some reason I'm not able to print anymore. I've tried the about:config settings and reset the printer to no avail.

Suggestions welcome.

Regards........

So I take it you've testing printing from other documents and it works fine, so its not a printer issue.
What happens when you try and print. any error message, does it hang? Is the correct printer selected?

Yes, I can print anything that is not coming from Firefox. The correct printer is listed and no error messages come up. The printer hangs and when I open up the printer status box, it just says Error Printing, but no reason.

If you boot up firefox in safe mode will it print then?
start->run type firefox -safe-mode
push enter

Well....... I got frustrated and uninstalled all the printer related software and reinstalled only the current drivers..... Things are working again.

Many thanks for the suggestions....
