4) Properties...
5) Paper size: letter
6) Change to Paper size: A6

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.

  • I cannot print from firefox. I can print from open office. It seems to have something to do with when frames open because in IE, I can print a whole page, but when I try to use a print button embeded in a page or frame it does not work.

    Cannot print from firefox at all.
    In Internet Explorer, I was able to print by pushing the print button, but when opening a frame, like in mapquest, the embedded print button brings up an options window that has print frames options in it, but when hit OK in this box, a second error box comes up with a yellow exclamation point and nothing prints. I have a feeling that it is the same problem with both browsers, but would prefer using firefox. Can you help with this?

      Yes, I tried that.   The files were ordered by their original numbers as imported from the camera, but I batched them through Phocoshop to downsize all of them into a more manageable file size.   I opened that destination folder from quick time  from where it said select image sequence.   I clicked on the first one and opened it.   The result was a large image with an arrow indicating a movie was ready to go.   When I pressed the arrow, though, I realized it had only imported that one frame so there was no movie.   The files are Jpgs and are about 450 KB each. 
        To your knowledge are there any links to iMovie tutorials or quick time tutorials that may address this situation?  Maybe there will be one I haven't looked at yet. 
        Thanks

  • Cannot print from Firefox

    For some time now I cannot print from Firefox. I thought it might be a glitch after an update, but have updated again since and it still does not work. If I try to print to a printer, nothing happens. If choose print and then save to PDF it seems to work, but then when I try to open the file I get an error message from Adobe saying "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.". On the other hand, I can print and save to PDF from Safari without any problem. I am using Mac OSX 10.5.8, Firefox 6.0.2.
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi,
    Please do a CLEAN install:
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a Clean reinstall. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    Note: You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    Windows:
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    Mac: Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    Linux: If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see Install Firefox on Linux. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

  • Suddenly I cannot print from firefox. It was printing one day and would not communicate with the printer the next.

    Suddenly I cannot print any web pages from Firefox. It was printing one day and not communicating with the printer the next. Did not happen with an upgrade to Firefox or plugins. Printer dialog came up but nothing sent to printer.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == suddenly- no known reason

    I cannot print from Firefox either all of a sudden. Maybe first thing in the AM, it will print something but then, that's it. I am running OX 10.5 too and using Firefox 3.6.8. I am ready to stop using this!! I like it but it is frustrating. I am on my mac all day for work and cannot find a solution to this Firefox problelm. Maybe Mozilla can help me. Anyone have any answers? I use a HP Laserjet 2300L.
    Thanks.

  • Cannot print from firefox using windows 7 x64 pro

    I cannot print using Firefox 3.6.3. I have a canon mx340 printer and am running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. I can print from files, email (Outlook), IE and everything else. I downloaded newest print drivers. I reset printer in Firefox using "about:config" That fixes it temporary, but after a little bit of time it stops printing again.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I fixed this problem. I had to turn off the browser virtualization feature in Zone Alarm Extreme Security. This wiped out all of the Firefox settings, but I had bookmarks, etc. backed up. (answered by original poster)

  • Cannot print from Firefox any version to adobe pdf. Have adobe acrobat plugins 11.0.3.37 and 9.5.5.316

    I cannot print any Firefox page to an adobe printer, that is, to create a pdf, even if my computer has an "adobe printer" installed and the adobe plugins are updated.
    However, there is no problem if I use the "pdf it!" add-on.
    Also if Firefox is already exhibiting a pdf page, the command "print" crashes the browser.
    My Firefox is always updated and this problem exists since mid 2012.

    HI, guys, thanks for your help, but I will try to be more precise.
    1. When I started this thread, I meant that yes I could read pdf's in firefox. I could not print ANY firefox (html) page to my adobe printer. When I command the page to be printed to adobe, I see a small window that shows the pdf being assembled, but it stops in the middle, stays locked, and firefox has to be manually crashed so that I keep working.
    If, instead of commanding a print to adobe, I use the pdfit! add-on, it creates a pdf in any directory I choose, without problems. But I think I should not depend on the pdfit! because I've always used the firefox until mid 2012 (I can't remember which release)
    2. The same thing happens when Firefox is already exhibiting a pdf and I simply command File-Print. I must crash Firefox in order to keep working.
    3. When, upon your suggestion, I disabled both adobe add-ons, then when I click a link to open a pdf, I don't get an open choice, just save or cancel. It's a new ball game, besides not solving the original problem.
    4. By the way, the preference pdfjs.disabled in about:config is False.

  • Cannot print from Firefox - 'an unknown error has occurred'

    Whenever I attempt to print from Firefox, I get 'an unknown error occurred while printing'. This is after I choose my printing preferences and hit OK.
    I have tried resetting the printer options in about:config, reinstalling Firefox completely, and removing the printer-reboot-let Windows reinstall. Same error no matter what.
    I have Windows 7 Home 64bit
    Printer is HP D110

    I have the same error on both iPad & iPhone when connection is made but seems to sync when I manually sync.

  • Cannot print from Firefox on any computer

    I have the latest version of Firefox installed on various computers running Windows XP or 7. I cannot print webpages from any of them. I have no printer issues when printing from Internet Explorer or any other application. I did not have this problem with Firefox 4. It has only surfaced with versions 5 and 6. I have tried all the remedies listed in the various help forums and can find nothing that works.

  • I cannot print from Firefox, keep getting "an unknown error occurred while printing."

    Whenever I attempt to print something from Firefox (email, receipt, and so on), printing fails and I get the message "an unknown error occurred while printing." Printing from Internet Explorer works without any problem.

    I came across the same problem today, also using a 2600N. Window updated the drivers through a Windows update yesterday, so I suspect that's what caused the problem since it was working fine before.
    I tried the reset in about:config and that didn't do jack, but I was able to solve it by removing the printer with device manager and then disconnecting it from my PC, plugging it back in, and letting Windows reconfigure it automatically. It works now.
    Good luck

  • Cannot print from firefox 4.0.1 on a MacOS 10.6.7? Trying to print a hotmail msg.

    This has been happening for awhile. It work fine on Safari. No other problems printing. The problem is true for any webpage.

    Well folks, I downloaded the latest version of InDesign (CS5.5) and now I can at least print from my InDesign document.  Using Epson Profiles and Epson paper stock I can make decent prints on the new Epson R3000 printer.  But when I attempt to print InDesign documents (my photo portfolio pages) onto Hahnemuhle German Etching paper, using a Hahnemuhle ICC Profile, the photographic images are far too saturated and have a red/magenta cast.  I tried everything, including spending almost an hour on the phone with Epson support.  But, we could not come up with a solution.  Has anyone else had similar problems printing from an Epson R3000 and InDesign?  I can print TIFF photo files from Photoshop CS5 just fine, so clearly it has something to do with InDesign.  Suggestions are most welcome, thanks!  Mark W.

  • Cannot print from firefox. Get mssg "an unknown problem occured"

    when I try to print, the "save the file as" screen comes up. If I clear it, the "unknown problem occurred--". I can print from other programs.

  • I cannot print from firefox must use IE to print

    I have had numerous issues trying to print invoices from eBay or our own site using Firefox. I stayed with older versions to continue using Google Toolbar but surrendered to the latest version of Firefox last week. It was great until today. Now again I lost my print ability and will now have to go to IE to run print jobs. This sucks! In addition let me ask you why you cannot copy and paste text or images using Firefox. I have to use IE for all of that to.

    Thanks so much for your response.
    Not the shortcuts made to local folders, and SOME of the shortcuts work now.....Yahoo messenger works, Google Earth works, but that is about it. Basically any shortcut that goes to a website "tries" to come up, but only the "frame outline" of the page starts, then you have to end task to get that removed. I have tried making new shortcuts but they do the same thing, which makes me think something is "leftover" from Mozilla Firefox uninstall. I have removed the Installation folder, also searched for the prefetch files, just as the help section recommended. Uninstall was done thru control panel, and I even used a third part uninstall (crap cleaner) to try again...I have checked, and Firefox is no longer listed as the default browser.....IE is.....I would just like to have the IE shortcuts work now...
    Thanks again,
    Donvon....
