I am unable to print after upgrade to ver 144.0 The print preview just spins. I can print these web pages using Edge. This same thing happens with new version of Thunderbird. Can't print email either. John Stark

Ffx 147.0 / Mac OS Tahoe 26.2 / HP printers

Print dialog page margin custom values appear in mm only. No option for inches here.

As recommended years ago for earlier Mac OS and Ffx versions, I've tried the about:config dialog. Changed several universal page margin unit settings from 1 (mm) to 0 (inches), and also or my specific printers, for top, bottom, left and right. Also have tried to disable "unwriteable margins" settings, universal and printer-specific.

But the Print dialog Margins|custom (mm) seems to be hard wired, so not responding to changes in configuration settings.

Also have ensured that all Mac system measurement specs (Language, Region) are US and not metric.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

I have two shops on Etsy. From what I understand, I cannot access them both from the same browser, so I have Google Chrome for one and Firefox for the other. However, I have had a lot of trouble printing invoices and shipping labels from Etsy. When I hit print in Etsy, the invoices and labels are sent to Word and then there is some corruption. Yesterday, the shipping label was too small and the top portion was filled with Chinese language and not English. The rest of the label was in English. Is there a reason why the forms will not print directly from Etsy in Firebox? Transferring the files to Word (this is done by Firefox) makes a process that should be quick and easy a pain in the neck. Can this be resolved or I am going to need to use another browser. Thanks.

I have a Brother DCP-L2550DW printer that is connected via a network cable. Any other browser, i.e. Edge or Chrome, seem to be able to connect and print just fine. Firefox fails to print and there is no information about why. I have checked Event Viewer, turned off all the extensions, tried the about:config to reset printer options. Every single suggestion I've found so far fails to fix it. I have a great deal invested in using Firefox (bookmarks, etc.) so I'd like to keep it as my default browser, but not being able to print is SO annoying. Any suggestions?

my laptop wont let me play Roblox on it it says i need to download the app i click that so it does downloads but it say an error on it and it is not the internet connection. please help i want to play so please write back.

Hi Win10 PC fully up to date. Changed my printer from a Xerox to an HP laser. In the control panel, set the HP as the default printer. MS Office prints on the HP without prompting. Firefox (134.0.2) always defaults to the Xerox. The HP is available in the drop down box. Restarting the PC or reloading Firefox makes no difference, Firefox always defaults to the (non existent) Xerox. MS Edge defaults to the HP. Any ideas? Regards - Andrew

Hello there,

I'm a relatively new adopter of Firefox so please bear with me.

First off let me say that my Brother Printer is working fine. Word documents as well as non-PDF documents print correctly and cleanly from 3rd party applications as well as Firefox. That is until I open up a PDF document and attempt to print it and see: "Printer in an error state." Clearing out the print cue and or restarting the printer, does nothing to resolve this issue.

See attached image from the printer cue.

Digging into my system (Windows 11) everything appears fine, drivers are up-2-date, and all other applications that can use the printer do so without issue. Briefly re-installing Chrome, I'm able to print the PDF without issue. Which strongly suggests that this is an issue native to the Firefox browser. Odds are if I'm seeing this issue, loads of other users are as well.

Looking forward to your replies.... Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

I am trying to download videos from a site that I newly subscribed to. The videos do stream perfectly. The files do not download as video files and will not open at all. When I click on the download link, there is no recognition of a download happening and when I check my files later I have an "internet" file showing with a title but without a video file extension and nothing will open. The file extension is ".html". I am following the step by step instructions from the site involved. Other sites videos are downloading as expected.

Does firefox need to be my default browser? Any suggestions how to remedy this without losing what is working? Are there plug-ins that can address this issue?

Thanks.

With update 136.0, FF is requiring us to use a master password. I have one already set so my data is protected. I do not need a master password to open FF, but now I do.

STOP THIS MADNESS

We print a report from an application, and the application allows the user the option to print the "title" of the report. Once the option to print the title is selected and print report is executed, the report displays in the browser, which can then be printed to a printer. On one machine using Mozilla, everything works as it should, but on a second machine that we are starting to use, even though "print the title" is selected, the title does not appear on the final print output.

In other browsers I see a "page setup" option and that is where I can select "Title" and position where I want it to appear on printed output, and I suspect Firefox must have the same settings, but for the life of me, I can't seem to find it.

I've included the images of the various stages that we are trying to achieve with Firefox on the new machine.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Recently we switched my wife (first cc) from running on a PC under Windows 10 to Windows 11 using Firefox as the default browser with her main application being email. It seems that she can't print anything from Firefox, there is a screen that pops up saying "Preparing preview", the only way to get past that is to use the Esc key. It doesn't seem like Edge has that problem. I don't know how to find out what is going on, any advice would be welcome. I don't see how to get the version number, auto download and install Firefrox updates is enabled, I don't think any add-ons are installed. I'm not able to print from any website.

since most recent update ~7/28/25 or so, can't print anything

Something has changed recently and I now cannot print any emails or anything from internet. My printer is working, has been verified.... probably a setting, but I am unable to find the problem

How to include images when printing an article to a PDF file? Every article I can find by searching on Google says I should click on icons or settings that don't seem to exist. How can I set Firefox so that when I print an article to a PDF document, the photos or images are included in the PDF file. It would also be useful to be able to turn this feature on or off, depending on the article. Thank you.

When trying to print something using Firefox it automatically wants to print 2 copies, despite refreshing, rebooting, reinstalling and checking browser settings. This issue does not occur with other web browsers such as Microsoft Edge.
