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 have always, for 15+ years, been able to use the system Print dialog box to create a PDF.

But as of updating Firefox to version 152.0 (aarch64), all buttons related to Saving a PDF, etc. send the document straight to the Printer to print a hard copy. There no longer appears to be any way to save a PDF.

Example scenario: 1.) Visit website 2.) Select Print (cmd-P, File > Print) and open the 1st print dialog box 3.) Select "Print using the system dialog..." 4.) Select PDF in the 2nd dialog box. 5.) You used to be able to save the PDF at this stage, opening Finder, naming the file, and choose the Save DIR. However, as of this latest update, even after the Finder File Name dialog box, hitting Save at that stage sends it to the printer to print a hard copy.

Pressing PDF, Save as PDF, Open in Preview, and Save as Adobe PDF all send the file directly to the Printer to save it.

I've got tons of receipts and things to save for work in PDF and FF was always great at this. What happened? Is this a feature or a bug? Any and all advice is welcomed.

Running macOS 26.5.1, M2 Pro, macbook pro.

I'm using 2019 MacBook Pro 16" with OS Tahoe 26.5.1. When I click on "Print using system dialogue box" it takes me to the Mac print dialogue box as expected. When I select the option to open the page as a PDF in the Preview app, it sends it to my default printer to print instead. Very strange behavior. It only started doing this in the past week after installing the latest Firefox update (152.0 (64-bit)). I haven't downloaded any new programs and it happened well after the last OS update. I've reset my printer settings in Firefox, I've tried repeating it in "Troubleshoot Mode." No luck. The error doesn't happen in other applications like Mail App or Safari. Thank you for any insight or fix you can think of.

I selected SETTING for this question, from the dropdown menu "Which topic best describes your question?" because none of the selections are relevant for my question" which is about printing all "articles" on a yahoo news page such as:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/emmanuel-macron-hot-mic-reveals-151653489.html

If I simplify the printing I only get the first "article" on the page which, in the example I gave above is headlined with:

"'I'm the boss', Trump says at G7, as he warms to Ukraine's war aims"

If you page down you'll find the second "article" headlined:

"Trump says Iran deal averted 'economic catastrophe' but says he could still restart war"

If I specify simplify when printing the page, only the first article is printed.

Is there a way to print all of the articles using simplify?

UPDATE: I tried selecting reader mode but only the first article shows in browser window and prints.

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

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

When printing history from my bank account there are transactions missing in between pages and extra bank pages. The bank of course says it's the browser. it does it on Edge as well. Please help

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

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

I use a program called Ultimate Guitar Tabs. It is fantastic for finding chord sheets for playing guitar songs and being able to download them as a PDF file with the lyrics and chords shown. Unfortunately I have tried doing this simple press of a button save as PDF in Firefox and all I get is a colored screen either blue purple red etc and no PDF. I have tried the exact same thing in Google Chrome and it does it flawlessly. I don't want to use Google if I don't have to, but at this stage I have to and would be pleased if Firefox could address this problem and make life easy again. I updated Firefox today and everything seems ok except for this PDF problem. I imagine their will be other people affected by this and it may not seem like a big deal but Ultimate Guitar Tabs is the industry standard for teaching people how to play songs on guitar and is used by most muso's world wide to teach students how to play specific songs. Please note It affects both Linux Mint (My main system) and windows 11 (My Laptop). If Google chrome can do it on both Linux & Windows 11 I am sure you should be able to address this problem.

Please advise asap if you need more info etc.

Ever since the latest Firefox upgrade to version 135.0, my Epson 3760 printer pauses between each page when more than one page is requested to print continuously. This pause before each page didn't happen before the upgrade. I now have to go into my printer queue and select each item in the queue to have it resume printing - one at a time. I'm on Windows 11 with an LG laptop.

I just switched to Floorp from Chrome. When I try to print a shipping label with my DYMO 450 labelwriter, I cannot get the label to fit properly as I can with Chrome. It is an issue with the print dialog in Floorp. It does not have the "fit to paper" selection in scale section of the dialog. This makes the label print not near as well as in Chrome. I will be switching back to Chrome unless this can be addressed. See the 2 screenshots attached to see the issue.

I have an Epsom printer xp-2205 it will not e-mail any thing, instead I get a message to create an association in the default programs control panel. can any body help me to do that or is there an e-mail program i can install that will do that I am 82 next month and wee bit rusty thank you

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.
