When I in Firefox try to print a page from Google Kalender (Swedish), it just turns out blank. All other kinds of printouts , e.g. Word, web pages, etc., works fine. This problem started some weeks ago. Please help! Thank you!

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

A few updates ago, headers and footers started appearing on anything I print from Firefox. No other printing from any other source does this. All the settings (advanced settings) show header/footer as off, and 'none' in all the header footer options. I have attempted every combination available and can't get rid of the headers and footers. I Don't Want Them!

Since the Firefox Developer Edition update 152.0beta, saving as a PDF via the print menu no longer works. Although the “Save as PDF” option is available and selected by me, the job is always sent to the laser printer (which is not supposed to print it, of course). This happens on every conceivable website, so the website itself is not the cause. (Platform: macOS Tahoe 26.5.1)

For years, I’ve been able to generate PDFs via the print menu in FF without any issues—now I’m forced to take a detour via Safari, for example (which works correctly every time). So who has recently tinkered with this FF feature?

Since I can’t find the relevant setting in the FF preferences—and a “search” on this topic has been unsuccessful—I’d like to know if there’s a solution?

I've seen the other support requests on this from the past. Setting " print.tab_modal.enabled = false " doesn't seem to work now (Firefox for Mac 141.0.3).

Is there any (2025) way to default to "print with system dialog" rather than having to choose the link off of FF's dialog every time? It makes printing to PDF (which is 95% of my "printing" from FF) needlessly tedious.

A month ago I downloaded Linux Ubuntu 24.04.3 onto my Microsoft Surface Pro. Was never able to get the touch screen to work, but, the printer worked fine. After the recent Firefox update, however, I am unable to print. The preview page does not load. Not tech savvy, here, definitely not an administrator. How do I fix this? Thanks for any help.

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

We recently had an update on our printer drivers and somehow this has swapped settings from the previous system print dialogue to "Firefox - Print". The Firefox print dialogue does not have print preview and I need to be able to see a print preview. I've noticed that this was an issue in the past and people have solved it by going into about:config and setting print.tab_modal.enabled to false, but this hasn't worked for me. I am asking this question because if I can't find a solution I will have to switch to Chrome so I can see a print preview and I would rather not. If there is another way to force the system print dialogue instead of Firefox, please let me know.

After last auto upgrade of firefox browser, my print function is dysfunctional. When I try to print a broker data page, 2 "boxes" of options on the page I'm trying to print, become open, with long lists of all possible options, when they only show the one option I am using on the real web page I'm using. This takes up 1/2 of the printed page, and moves the data I'm trying to print down so far that I have to print 2 pages to include it all. This is a change which did not occur when printing before the upgrade. If I switch to a safari browser, this does not happen (but I prefer the firefox browser). Help please.

I am trying to print a picture of our family dog to put into a frame. She dies the December 26, 2021 and the frame is a certain size that I cannot find or don't know how to do this size.

Hello, After Firefox removed about:config option from Beta and Night, can you tell me how to remove Header and Footer when I print documents. I don't want to include URL,dates, times etc. but a clean document or file?

I like Firefox with one exception. The right-click print feature is missing in the drop-down menu. I can print from the Application Menu but the 'print' feature is missing using the mouse right-click menu. The right-click feature does work using other browsers. A picture of my right-click menu using Firefox is attached. THANKS

After I print a page, Firefox seems to remember most of the options I chose for next time.

For example, if I print using some custom margins, Firefox will default to those same custom margins the next time I print a page. The same for duplex options - Firefox remembers that I want to print double-sided and with "Flip on short edge".

However, it doesn't remember my "pages per sheet" settings. It's annoying because I always print 2 pages per sheet, but Firefox defaults to 1. So I need to change that setting to 2 every time I print. If I forget, I wastefully use twice as much paper.

I've checked in about:config and `print.save_print_settings` is set to `true`. Like I say, most of my settings do get saved, but not "pages per sheet".

Is there anything I can do to set a persistent preference for this?
