Here's a good example right here. If I tried to print this page, the icons above this box would print over the text on every page, making the text not readable. How can I stop the icons from printing???

Hello,

Since update 144.0 today, when I try to print a (pdf) page showing a mail adress, this mail adress is replaced by the label "[email protected]".

I try to find a way to disable this protection, as I work in a public library and use firefox to print the inscription forms (showing adress, phone and mail adress) for our users.

Various computers, with up-to-date firefox, show the same issue, with various printers, but I do not reproduce this issue in edge, for example.

I'm looking for a parameter in about:config and firefox parameters, but found nothing really meaningfull so far.

I use Firefox as my main browser for all my work, but when doing to print off my labels with barcodes the quality isn't great, I have compared this using Edge and Chrome and you can really see the quality difference.

Has anyone else have this problem and is there a fix?

Thank you in advance. Pete

My Canon printer disconnected from my computer after Firefox offered me CutePDF writer printing which I did not take.

The drop down menu for printers under settings no longer shows my Canon, only this Cute one.

Not Cute...Need to be able to print.

Connection to Zoom on this same desktop is not working right. The meeting flashes on and off. Ideas?

Thanks, Karen

When I print an email to PDF the default folder destination is stuck on this one non existent folder. I can change the destination, but the next time I do this the default has reverted. I save a lot of emails this way & this new development is not only costing me time but is aggravating as can be. Before this situation developed the defalt destination would be the last folder I saved to. That is what I want to get back to. Anyone have a suggestion?

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.

One annoying feature of Firefox is that during a print process, if the web page contains an iframe and that iframe utilizes a different domain name than the original page, Firefox will not print the data contained in the iframe. As a long time Firefox user, I would suggest that if I can see the data, then Firefox should print that data. Perhaps there might be some sort of security concerns involved, however at least give me an option to override it for certain domains. I do note that MS Edge does support the printing of iframes. The issue can be easily recreated on most eBay pages that list an item for sale. The 'Item description from the seller' data is contained in an iframe and does not print in Firefox.

When printing the same page repeatedly, FF gets increasingly slower and slower each time until it is downright ridiculously slow and takes up to a minute, perhaps more, to get to the print menu. However, if you reload the page, printing is instantaneous (at least for the first or second time). Some history or memory management problems?

FF Version 135.0 (64-bit) on MacBook Pro Sequoia 15.3.1

One test case would be https://api.razzlepuzzles.com/cryptogram. Keep selecting New Game from the pull-down menu on the right and try printing as PDF (or anything else).

I am trying to print this PDF file. When I print through Firefox, the "R" characters are replaced with "T"s Printing with any other application such as preview on my mac does not result in this issue.

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?

Lately (for several weeks) I have been having trouble printing web pages with bold headings (Not Headers... Headings) in their pages. For example - recipes. The bold text which is usually also a larger font, is either missing completely, or just a series of dots.

It looks just fine in the print preview (I am on a mac, running High Sierra 10.13.6) and the problem exists whether I use the webpage print dialog or my operating system dialog.

I have tried both of my available printers and it happens on both printers, so it isn't a problem with my printers (I thought it might just be my old HP P1505)

I have also tried saving the page as a pdf through my print system dialog - the text problem exists there as well. If I use Safari (I prefer Firefox, but if this is going to continue, then I'll have to go back) everything is fine. (see the attached image - Firefox on the left, Safari on the right)

So there seems to be something in Firefox that has recently stopped allowing these fonts to make their way through from the screen into the print system.

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 recently installed v. 146 for both FireFox and Thunderbird on my laptop which is running Windows 11 Pro (Version 25H2 / Build 26200.7462). Since the upgrade to v. 146 I have been unable to use my older HP printer (Laserjet 2300d) on both products. When I try to print a browser page or e-mail using either the printer icon or the "File/Print" menu selection, the print dialog comes up like normal. However, when I click on the "Print" button, my screen flashes, the dialog box disappears, there is no indication from the printer that a file has been sent and no document is found in the print queue.

My newer HP printer/scanner (Officejet Pro 8130)works fine, as does printing to my older printer from MS Edge. So, the issue is with the Mozilla products. Using "Troubleshooting Information" and clearing the Printer cache has not resolved the issue for either FireFox or Thunderbird. Nothing else like this shows up in the knowledge base.

Do I have to retire my older, but dependable and inexpensive to use, laser printer in order to continue using FireFox/Thunderbird or is there a software solution?
