Can no longer print anything from a website when using FireFox. Have updated FF but no other programs added or changed. Get a message "save file as *.xps"

When I try to print, I get a message to save file as *.xps file, but Mozilla stops responding when I try that. Can still print from other browsers.

Hello there,
My name is Luke and i would be happy to assist you with this issue. The reason you are getting this is because your computer's default printer is set to Microsoft XPS Document Writer. If you go to your computer's printer settings and set your favourite printer as the default one this problem will be fixed. If there are any more questions please feel free to reply to me.
Thank you!
Luke

  • Why can't I print anything from my e-mail using Firefox

    I am using a HP 8180 All-in-One printer when I try to print something It comes up with a MY Documents and asks me to name it. When I do it doesn't print anyway. Please help if you can!

    Hi swenzel,
    Can you be a little more descriptive of the problem? You say you "cannot copy it" but don't give any details. There are several methods for copying text like ''Ctrl + C'', right click ''copy'', ''Edit > Copy'' etc. Which method are you trying? When you do try, what happens? Is the option not there? Does the text just not appear when you try to paste it? We need more details to really be of use.
    Just a guess, but you might want to try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Why can't people click on anything on my website when using firefox. Every other browser works

    hi guys,
    so i have a website but people using firefox cant click on anything but the navigation at the top.
    check the website out on IE or safari or chrome then compare it to firefox
    anybody know why this is happening?
    thanks!

    Ok so I looked at whe the main problems were and it seems as though they were in my Wordpress widgets. I disabled those and now everything is clickable.
    Only thing I'm not quite sure of is that the errors say that I have tags open or I missed closing them. But everything seems ok. I don't know the language that well (only very very basic stuff)
    I'll try and see if I can figure it out. I think I'm putting <p> and font tags where I am not suppose to

    Hi  Coconutloveaustralia,
    May i know which application of Adobe you are using. And what exactly is happening when you are trying to print.
    Also, let me know:
    1. Name and version of operating system.
    2. Acrobat or Reader version installed.
    3. Have you tried to print with different application, is it the same issue.
    Regards,

  • Why can I no longer Print anything from Firefox after installing 28.0?

    Since upgrading to 28.0, I can no longer print anything from within the Firefox browser. My other applications continue to print normally, but whenever I try to print anything from Firefox, I get a "A print error has occurred" message. The Print Preview page displays only a blank, gray window. Prior to upgrading I had no problems.

    Can you try to access Firefox in Safe Mode to see if the problem still exists and/or if it opens? You can follow the below instructions to start it in that mode.
    *Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
    *When Firefox closes and re-opens, select ''Start in Safe Mode''
    If Firefox works fine after starting in Safe Mode, then it's most likely one of your extensions misbehaving. You can enable your add-ons back on by one until you find the conflicting extension.

  • Since updating to Firefox 3.6.15, I can no longer print coupons from SmartSource. The error message is that Java is not detected. The check box is longer showing in the Options/Content of this version of Firefox, so I can not enable it.

    Same PC as I used to post the question. When I go to the "plug in check" page, it shows I am up to date and it is not disabled.

  • Why can I not print anything from a web page?

    Why can I not print anything from a web page?

    Thank you, but I still haven't solved my problem. I tried the reset suggestion. But I cannot find print.print_printer preference. Maybe the word "printer" is to be replaced with the name of my printer. But because of the warning that making any changes is a very dangerous thing to do, I hesitated to do anything.
    I have located the Print to file option, but it is not checked.
    This problem did not exist before the Firefox update of about 6 months ago. Today I downloaded the latest Firefox update, hoping that would solve my problem, but it did not.
    Thank you for your continued assistance.

  • With the new updates for iTunes, I can no longer print a CD case playlist when I burn a CD.  It prints in a jumbled mess.  I have reinstalled, updated, run diagnostics on my NEW printer, I am out of ideas!

    With the new updates for iTunes, I can no longer print a CD case playlist when I burn a CD.  It prints in a jumbled mess.  I have reinstalled, updated, run diagnostics on my NEW printer, I am out of ideas!

    It appears to be a bug with the current build. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next release.

    I am having issues today with my Adobe Lightroom 5.6 today that was working fine yesterday except for te files from one of my cameras showed up on import but wouldn't download, today I'm getting the message "Lightroom cannot start because it cannot create files in the temporary file location  /var/folders/jv/2bct456j0yg4ys681fxk9zq00000gn/T " don't know what has happended in 24 hrs except I did check my permissions on my main directory to ensure that I had extended permissions to all the folders contained within my main drive on my IMac running OSX 10.10

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • I am unable to print anything from any website.

    As of a week or so ago, I cannot print anything from Firefox. I'm using FF 3.6.13, and Max OS X 10.6.6 on a 3+ year-old (Intel Core 2 Duo) iMac. I'm connected via ethernet to a Brother laser printer. I am unaware of any change in any element of the computer's hardware or software since before the problem appeared, except the recent OS X update. (See below for why I don't think that's the problem.)
    In all other respects Firefox appears to be working correctly: I can open pages, navigate the sites as usual, etc.
    I don't get a blank sheet of paper from the printer--I get no response from the printer at all, print preview gives no response, and pdf's created from the print dialog box are blank.
    I reset all of the print settings in about:config. No help. I deleted Firefox and all my preferences, reinstalled FF from the Mozilla site; no help.
    The only extension I've added is a dictionary, which has not been updated or altered since long before the problem appeared.
    The error console has warnings: "Warning: Unknown property '(blah, blah, blah)'. Declaration dropped. Source file: https//addons.mozilla.org/media//css/zamboni/z-min.css?build=cd68cc7" where '(blah, blah, blah)' is "text-overflow", "border-radius", "box-shadow", "-moz-transition", et al.
    Error console has a message: "api-secure.recaptcha.net : server does not support RFC 5746, see CVE-2009-3555". Following up on that didn't do me any good either. The description of that issue seemed to focus on sites not opening, which is not my problem.
    My wife's MacBook is running the same version of Firefox and OS X (including last week's update to Snow Leopard), and prints to the same printer over the same LAN. (Later model processor and different firmware, though.) No problems printing, just like my iMac was behaving last week.

  • Can not longer print pdf from Acrobat Reader

    All of a sudden I can no longer print pdf files to my printer.  It is shared by all the computers in our household and any time I try to print from any of the computers now, instead of printing it creates a prn file instead.  I can find no option in the printer properties where selecting or deselecting something to enable or disable printing to files.  All the systems are either MS Vista or Windows 7.  Though there are commands that allow sending a prn to a network printer, they require a named print server, which we don’t have on our peer-to-peer network.
    It is interesting that I can create a pdf file in Photoshop on my system and it will print from Photoshop.  I can also print the “problematic” documents for Photoshop, which I only have on one system. But anything created in Acrobat will not print natively from Acrobat reader.

    In the Print dialog click on Advanced, then uncheck Print to File.

  • Can no longer print wirelessly from my IPad

    have a hp photosmart 6510  Airprint wireless printer; have pc, laptop, and IPAD connected to it; all have been working great until a few days ago when Ipad  began to not print.
      now when i click the print button on my IPad one of two things happen. 1) screen says "contacting printer" or 2) the small print box just disappears in both cases however nothing gets printed. Network is fine and web access is fine; configuration shows no problem; no problem printing wirelessly from pc and laptop computers.  have unplugged router and modem, have also verified that blue tooth is off in IPad. what to do; any help would be appreciated

    You unplugged the router and modem -- that's good.  Now try resetting your iPad.
    Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.

  • I can no longer print photos from iPhoto.

    When I try to print photos from iPhoto, I get the error message:  There were no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed, this feature will be unavailable. The solution offered by iPhoto help is ridiculous as it assumes that you can get past the error message and on to the option to choose a theme. No so.  The error message is the end of the road.  This is a new problem for me.  Apparently there was an automatic update and now I am updated to no longer being able to print my own photos. Apparently (according to traffic on Google) this is not a new issue, but I haven't seen a solution.  Can't deny that I am royally ****** off.

    when i try to print a photo: select>file>print a box comes up stating ' no available themes'
    Iphoto not printing

  • I can no longer download anything from the new style app store on 1st gen iPod touch

    Whenever I click to install an app from app store the button disappears. If I click again in the general area that the button should be, I get a green empty button, if I cclick that, it turns blue but still nothing happens. On the old style app store it used to either begin unstallion or tell me that the app wasn't compatible with my device. Now I get NOTHING. Please can someone help?!

    I have the same problem with my 1st gen Touch.  It started a few days ago when I and many other 1st gen users noticed that we could no longer download podcasts directly to our iPods, and after a day or two that seemed to be fixed, but now the app store is broken for us.  For me when I try to download an app I press the button and then the graphics for the button get all jumbled.  I can see it's there but the edges and letters are all mixed up and wierd looking.  It turns green like the download button, and when I push that it turns blue and then just sits there doing nothing.  I know this isn't a problem with updating my software because anyone who knows anything about earlier models knows that they stopped updating the iOS for them a long long time ago.  This is definitely a problem on Apples end where they've made some kind of changes to the app store that break it on earlier iPods (I saw another post from a 2nd gen user who is having the same problem).  I hope Apple fixes this soon.
