Every time I try to print multiple copies of a document (PDF or word, not printing a webpage), the printer instead shrinks the page size to around 1/4 size on normal letter paper.

I have checked all my printer settings, reset firefox printing settings, reset computer printing settings, and gone into all the printer menus directly. Even if the page size is set to 100% size, it will still print as a 1/4 image as long as I am trying to print multiple copies directly from the firefox browser (or Firefox PDF viewer).

I also tested it on multiple printers as well as single vs double sided. On Firefox, if you print multiple copies of any document (not screenshot or print-webpage) it will shrink it into a quarter sheet. This works against double sided and single sided.

As for the types of documents: this is for every .docx or .pdf form printed off of Firefox (even pre-existing .pdf documents opened in the Firefox pdf viewer), as long as I am printing multiple copies. If I open the same .docx or .pdf in Adobe, the issue does not arise.

Both me and another coworker have the same issue (both use firefox) and other browsers do not have the same shrinking issue while printing. I believe it started around a month ago?

I am trying to print a statement, In the text itself it is the correct font size; however, when I print it is so small I can hardly read it. How do I increase the size of the printed statement

since one of your updates it is impossible to just print an email from the print icon - I have to keep opening new boxes and in the end it might print - complete waste of time and I am thinking of leaving Firefox completely.

is there no-one - a real human I can call?

When I want and try to print a document that I've accessed from a website with my Firefox browser, the print options in the box on the right side of my screen is grayed out for printing in color and I can only print in black & white. I have a Brother laser color printer. This is a relatively new problem. I don't know why the color print function is grayed out. I couldn't get a good answer from a Brother tech when I called them on this problem.

My preferred email address to contact is: slspete@cox.net

I am use a Phomemo Thermal Label Printer for labels and packing slips. The print preview shows the whole page, but prints only a partial page and small print. Tried all setting but no difference.. See photos

New (to me) issue, was not happening prior to system and browser updates. Using MacOS Tahoe 26.5.1 with Firefox Version 152.0.2 (64-bit), when I attempt to use keyboard shortcuts to copy paste into print dialogue (when I use Destination 'Save to pdf' and want to paste a file name I have copied), I get an error noise and no copy/paste happens. Using "right click" copy/paste is working properly (allows copy/paste of text into print dialog save to pdf name box). I have no custom keyboard settings for any apps and this issue is not occurring elsewhere in the browser (and is not occurring in other browsers). Have done the normal, updating OS and browser, used terminal to kill the clipboard and restart it, and restarted system and browser a couple of times. Would love to know if there is something I can do to fix this as I use this function frequently.

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.

I've been using Firefox to display and print PDF files for some months but suddenly it no longer works for me, The particular document I'm trying to print has 10 pages, each full of colorful images and text. I've been printing issues of this same periodical for months using Firefox with no difficulty. Now the pages look fine, but as soon as I try to print them I get 10 postage-stamp sized images, each in the center of its own, largely blank page. Can anybody help?

version 152.0.2 (64-bit) "up to date"

I've used Firefox since Revision 15. I've used Adobe Acrobat 9.5 Pro Extender for almost as long.

I have Win 10 Home, all updates applied. My system is 64-bit. It has 32GB of RAM. Some tabs - e.g., www.yahoo.com/finance - balloon and consume so much RAM, that I have to restart Firefox.

After most recent updates 151.0 Adobe no longer will print to .pdf. This is HUGELY disruptive.

Having used computers for work for over 45 years, I understand it is hard to ensure that an update does not become a down-grade.

I do not want to to move to a newer version of Acrobat. What I have works well for me.

Can someone PLEASE make whatever changes are needed, so that Adobe Acrobat works smoothly?

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 sell on vinted, which generates a PDF label to print. Some of the courier sites add a lot of nonsense text to their labels, which I cover up with a white box to save ink. These edited PDFs used to then print just the label without the nonsense text, but since a recent Firefox update they have started printing an empty page instead. Saving the edited PDF and then opening it again in Firefox does not work. The edited labels still print okay in Microsoft Edge.

Hi everyone,

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, generating PDFs via the print menu has worked flawlessly with FF—now I’m forced to take a detour via Safari, for example—which works correctly in the long run—but isn’t my preferred solution. I don’t think you need different browsers just to use “normal” functions. 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?

Best regards, HS

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.
