I have reset the Print_print_printer option, still it cannot print. My printer is listed in the setting in the config files...

It was working until this last upgrade...

What shall I try now???

Check your page-set-up settings - Margins. When I installed the latest update for Firefox, my upper margins had been reset to 7342 inches!!! I changed that to .5 inches. Problem solved.

Try This!

1) Go to Print Preview 2) Print 3) Name: HP PSC 2100 series (depend on your printer) 4) Properties... 5) Paper size: letter 6) Change to Paper size: A6 7) OK 8) Repeat step 4 again 9) Change back again Paper size: letter 10) OK 11) Don't print, but go back to Print Preview again and see if it works

This is the one that have work for me after trying several times modifying about:config with no success. Good luck and hope that will help.
