I am not sure I understand it still will not print.

If you cannot see any content on pages you printed or in print preview, the cause might be margins which are set too high.

  1. In order to check the margins, we need to go to File > Page Setup.
  2. Once this is done, switch to the Margins & Header/Footer tab.
  3. Check what's set there under Margins.

The following are the default values for Margins:

Right: 12.7

Top: 12.7

Left: 12.7

Bottom: 12.7

Check these values accordingly and change them if necessary.

It says that the printer in not supported in FireFox. It also tells me to click the start button, right click the printer button, go to properties and on the advanced settings make sure that the keep printed documents is not checked. I have done all of this and it still will not print.
