Firefox Community Forum

HI,

I updated recently the Firefox installation on my Mac to 139.0.1. I noticed that I can no longer print from certain websites using Firefox. One example is from Alaskair, where I tried to print a ticket and it was just sitting there trying. I had no problem printing the same with Safari.

Is this a known problem? Any suggestion (other than just give up on Firefox and use Safari) for what to do about this?

Every time I update Firefox, new bugs cause annoying problems. That's why I usually not updating for a long time.

Thanks.

I am not sure why every time I go to print something, it takes the color blue and turns it gold. I have used other browsers like Edge to print and it does not do this, only while I am using firefox. I have tried to set the color management mode to 0 and to 1 and neither of these options have worked. Is this a problem with the newest update or is there a setting that I am missing?

Hey all, I'm hoping someone can help me. I have found no answers online to date.

I cannot print from the Firefox browser. When I click the print button, my printer spits out a blank page.

I can print from any other browser, Word, Excel, PDF files, anything except for Firefox. This may not be as much of an issue if Firefox wasn't my primary browser, so when I start doing work on it and find I need to print something at the end, it's a problem.

My printer software is up-to-date, I tried resetting the printing preference to default (assuming I did this correctly), and I even uninstalled and re-installed Firefox (which was a disaster). None of this helped.

Is there one of you who may be able to provide me with the help I need?

I appreciate your effort greatly.

Previously, when printing a website, you could select the text on the page and then click print and then there was an option (Print SELECTION) that would allow you to print only the highlighted text.

I cannot find that option on the modern firefox print window/dialogue?

I have an Arch Linux installation with Plasma desktop. Software is always kept up-to-date. Sometime recently, Mozilla apps, Firefox nor Thunderbird, will no longer print, neither to pdf nor to network printer. These always worked before. Now, if even "print preview" is invoked, the dialog opens as a blank sub window with only the word "Print" in upper right, and at left center is "Preparing Preview with rotating time delay wheel, which never resolves. All other apps, including other browsers and mail handlers, will print without issue. I've tried the obvious checks with no success. Where could be the problem? Is there a helper app shared by Firefox and Thunderbird that could be the issue? The only potential remedy I have not yet tried is complete removal of both Firefox and Thunderbird, as that would cause re-configuration issues for both. It's necessary to press <ESC> to terminate the print window when it fails to respond. Screenshot attached...

Due to the lack of a suitable topic related to “print” options, I can only choose the topic related to persistence, "Download and Save."

The first image is part of the original webpage, where one of the buttons is selected.

However, in the print view (the second image), the selected state disappears.

I have switched across multiple devices, various versions of Firefox, and several different printers (MS Print to PDF or physical printers), and this phenomenon consistently occurs.

Firefox is my daily browser, but in order to print similar financial approval forms, I have to switch to Edge or Chrome to complete the task.

I hope Mozilla's excellent engineers can locate and fix this issue.

Thank you.

i use Firefox on an iMac running Sequoia 15.5 I can print everything except when I go to a Merrill Account and try to print . How can I prints without having to go to Safari?

The custom printer dialogue in FireFox is not good in handling non common printers or paper sizes, when printing with for example label printers it's annoying and adds an extra step since many option are not present or not sticking in the FireFox custom printing dialogue. I'd like to know if there is still a way in current versions of FireFox to completely remove this custom printer dialogue and go directly to the system print dialogue. This used to be available thru about:config setting, but it's no longer working in that way. Thanks in advance.
