No more details, just how do I fix this so I can print! It happens everytime I try to print a webpage, I usually have to copy the link and print from Explorer.

You need to select the correct "printer" that you want to use in the Print -> Name dialog box. That XPS "printer" is the default in Firefox on Windows, until you select a different "printer". I am using quotes, because a "printer" can be a physical printer (hardware, that prints to paper) or a virtual printer (software, which is to a file - xps, pdf, etc).
