A few updates ago, headers and footers started appearing on anything I print from Firefox. No other printing from any other source does this. All the settings (advanced settings) show header/footer as off, and 'none' in all the header footer options. I have attempted every combination available and can't get rid of the headers and footers. I Don't Want Them!

In Firefox version 149, there is an issue with print preview behavior for HTML <select> elements. When opening print preview, all <option> items inside a dropdown are displayed and included in the print output.

This behavior differs from Firefox 148, where only the selected option is rendered correctly during print preview.

Steps to reproduce:

- Create an HTML page with a <select> dropdown containing multiple <option> elements. - Select one of the options. - Open print preview (Ctrl + P).

Expected result: Only the selected option should be visible and printed.

Actual result: All options inside the <select> element are displayed and printed.

Impact: This issue breaks the layout of printed documents and makes forms difficult to read, especially when dropdowns contain many options.

Using Mozilla as my browser, I print from my Lenovo laptop to my HP Office Jet 8025e printer. The headers and footers have disappeared. The "print Header/Footer" is checked in the printer settings, but they do NOT print. This change has occurred during the last couple of weeks, perhaps as the result of an update. It seems that checking or unchecking that box makes no difference now. Same result regards...no Headers or Footers. Please advise.

I have a Brother DCP-L2550DW printer that is connected via a network cable. Any other browser, i.e. Edge or Chrome, seem to be able to connect and print just fine. Firefox fails to print and there is no information about why. I have checked Event Viewer, turned off all the extensions, tried the about:config to reset printer options. Every single suggestion I've found so far fails to fix it. I have a great deal invested in using Firefox (bookmarks, etc.) so I'd like to keep it as my default browser, but not being able to print is SO annoying. Any suggestions?

Hello, I hope somebody can give me some guidance about two issues that are driving me crazy. To provide some context, I use Firefox to work from home and my primary interest is accessing government and bank sites from my country to fill out tax forms and pay said taxes, therefore the browser built in provisions that deal with web page development, shortcuts, Artificial Intelligence, Social Media are utterly useless to me. The issues are as follow: 1. I regularly access the website of the federal tax authority of my country and local state hundreds of times each day. After a while, normally two months, Firefox starts to behave like a drug addict: It develops a resistance to the security cookies from these sites that worsens over time, until eventually the websites plain out kick me as soon as I log in. The only workaround is to use Privacy Mode or another browser until Firefox starts to behave again. In 2026 this started to happen with the bank website too. 2. After a fit of rage after a failed task I was in the process of attemping to destroy the mouse when reason finally prevailed but not before I got another issue with Firefox: The browser now prints (To PDF and paper) every single item from dropdown menues in webpages that cointan these elements. I already tried re-installing the browser, doing a clear install, erasing cache and cookies, deleting profiles. Thank you for any guidance.

Recently, in last two months, when using the Firefox website browser, I cannot print some, but not all, website articles on my Brother Laser Printer. Articles from Website www.zerohedge.com will not print. Articles from other websites print fine. My Firefox version is: Firefox Version 156.0.1, Build ID 20260921121718. other troubleshooting information: User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:156.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/156.0 OS Windows_NT 10.0 26200.

I am running Windows 11 home, Version 25H2, installed 7/9/2026.,

I have cleared the "saved print settings" button with no solution. Still won't print.

Your thoughts please. Kind regards, John T.

After today's update, March 25, 2026. I cannot print correctly. When printing from a page with drop down menu's, Firefox is printing every option on the menu. I have tried Refreshing Firefox, Clearing Saved Print Settings and rebooting. Anyone know how to fix this?

We recently had an update on our printer drivers and somehow this has swapped settings from the previous system print dialogue to "Firefox - Print". The Firefox print dialogue does not have print preview and I need to be able to see a print preview. I've noticed that this was an issue in the past and people have solved it by going into about:config and setting print.tab_modal.enabled to false, but this hasn't worked for me. I am asking this question because if I can't find a solution I will have to switch to Chrome so I can see a print preview and I would rather not. If there is another way to force the system print dialogue instead of Firefox, please let me know.

When I click on option/link for "Print using the system dialog box", the print preview no longer works. Instead I see message "This app doesn't support print preview" in preview pane.

I'm unable to print Yahoo emails via Firefox 146.0.1. I receive a 403 forbidden error. Listed below is the error:

Looks like there’s a problem with this site https://mail.yahoo.com/print/message/AAHdMRfbvQcEeFDcuycB940Whp3? appName=NOVATION_APP sent back an error. Error code: 403 Forbidden • Check to make sure you’ve typed the website address correctly.

Just FYI, I can go into the Chrome browser and print without issue.

Hi, I recently switched to Firefox and I have run into a problem. While printing a pdf on the "more setting" menu the percentage scale doesn't actually work. First of all the preview doesn't change when trying different scales, I thought that it might have been a preview problem and I've tried to print anyway finding out that also the printed result wasn't correct. I often use this feature and I will be grateful if you are able to help me. Thanks

I keep having to roll back to Version 149 to avoid having all drop down options printing. I've seen other support questions stating this has been fixed, but it continues to appear on every site I print from. It is happening whether I use Ctrl-Atl-P or a print icon on the website. It is printing every drop down option as a separate box AND it also prints every "right panel" index as a separate box at the top of the print page.

This is occurring in every version of Firefox after 149 that I try.

When I in Firefox try to print a page from Google Kalender (Swedish), it just turns out blank. All other kinds of printouts , e.g. Word, web pages, etc., works fine. This problem started some weeks ago. Please help! Thank you!

When trying to print something using Firefox it automatically wants to print 2 copies, despite refreshing, rebooting, reinstalling and checking browser settings. This issue does not occur with other web browsers such as Microsoft Edge.
