Cannot print web pages as full sheet pages

When I attempt to print a web page w/current Firefox version I get a miniaturized version of the page that fits into a small space on the upper left corner of the printed copy. Prior Firefox versions did not present this problem. I just want to know how to set up so that a full page on screen is printed in a full page format on my copy. I tried to find solution on line but, to no avail
== Operating system ==
Windows XP

You need check Properties for that printer through Firefox.

Cannot print web page

I cannot print from a web page or now from an email. I can print all Office documents however. I have done every Microsoft fix, every fix I can find on the internet and none of them correct this problem. Bottom line is all websites that say if the issue isn't solved with the fixes it is the printer. Something is screwy because I can log onto my network as another user and it prints fine. Any advice? This started in October 2011.

Hey , Thanks for posting in the HP Support Forum. I see that you're getting the PDF save prompt when trying to print from the Chrome browser via Android with the HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One Printer. I would like to help. It sounds like you're printing via the built-in Android print solution. Have you tried using the Google Cloud Print app? This article from Google explains the setup. Once you've got it hooked up you should be able to print straight from the Chrome browser as desired. Let me know if this approach works. In the meantime, I'll try printing with the same setup you're using to see if I encounter the same PDF prompt. The workaround on PC is 'Ctrl + shift + p' to open the print dialogue, but I'm not aware of a similar workaround for Android. If I have helped you resolve the issue, feel free to give me a virtual high-five by clicking the 'Thumbs Up' icon below and clicking to accept this solution. Have a great day,

Cannot print actual size when choosing several pages per paper

I'm using Adobe Reader XI and trying to print a pdf (exported from InDesign)´where each page is in A5 format. I want to print two A5 pages for each A4 paper. However, when I click the button Several (or similar, I'm using Swedish version) there is a fixed 25 mm margin around each A5 page so that the pages are much reduced on the printout. I'd like to print actual size, and I think this was possible in a previous version. If I print one A5 per A4 paper I can print the actual size. I tried the button Print Format (equiv.) but the margins are fixed and cannot be changed. Awkward. Thanks for help or explanation why this is so.

I have a little more information. I turned on "single hairline" border and as you can see, it's converting my square pages into "US Letter" pages BEFORE applying them two-to-a-page. So it's using my selection of "Paper Size" as both the source and destination paper size, rather than just the destination size, because my source is obviously 12x12 square (confirmed by looking at page properties in preview). Apple, please fix this

Just downloaded Firefox 4, cannot print web pages, print is all skewed, looks like secret coding.

Tried to print a web page friendly receipt and then tried printing a web page, print is skewed, looks like some sort of encryption.

Installing nightly builds is not recommended for most people. If you install a nightly build you will get updates every day. Though the current nightly builds are stable, it is not unusual for them to be very unstable and at time unusable.

On a Macbook Pro, I cannot print web pages with Firefox v 3.6.13. I can print if I use Safari, but no Firefox. Any ideas??

When I try to print, it does not even appear to "connect" to the printer software. Normally, a printer icon will pop up in the taskbar, but this does not happen with Firefox. Also, in Mac, you have the option of saving the webpage as a pdf document. When I try it, it only results in a blank page. The Browser that comes with a Mac, Safari, works fine and prints. Not sure if it's a setting in Firefox or something else.

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4+ versions.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
* browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
* browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
* browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
* browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
* browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

I cannot print web pages. Tried printing with IE and it worked, so this is Firefox-specific. I will have to stop using it unless someone can help me figure out why it won't let me print a web page. Help! Don't want to go back to IE!

Can't print from Firefox. ONLY Firefox, and only since downloading v.4. Can I get back to V. 3? Kind of reminds me of when Windows XP "advanced" to Vista.

Try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

Minor bug in Print module (numbering of Contact Sheet pages)

I have selected one image from the Library or the film strip, went to the Print module and selected "5x8 Contact Sheet" from the Template Browser. On the top/left corner, it states "Page 1 of 2", while obviously there is one page only. Adding more pictures to fill in multiple pages, and moving from one page to another, the indication on top/left is recurrently wrong, e.g. indicating Page 2 of 2 when I am on 1 of 2. Numbering in the lower right rectangle is correct, instead.

Lightroom automatically wraps text under the thumbnail in contact sheets. The Text Template Editor does not allow you to enter line breaks. So, if your Filename is long enough to fill the first line, the caption will start with the second. If not, you can tweak the template somehow so that it looks the way you want.

I cannot print just a selection of a page, what can I do?

I have seen that other people have asked this question also, but none of the replies on the forum are satisfactory. They all say it is not a good thing what you have done with the print option. I want to print a simple recipe, maybe half a page, I go to print and cannot select the option to print just the selection. It shows 7 pages to print! What a waste of time, paper, and ink!!!
The only option people seem to have found is to copy the selection and paste it in a word document. Then you end up with a lot of junk in word that is not needed. This is also time consuming.
My old version of foxfire didn't have this problem. Please fix this issue or I will be forced to switch to another browser, which I don't want to do as foxfire still has the least crashes of any browser I have used.

Simple answer is - '''don't use the Print button when you want to print a selection'''.
# Select the text that you want to print.
# Use '''{ Ctrl + P }''' to open the "native print dialog".
# 'tick' '''Selection''' under Print Range
# Hit the Print button in that dialog box to print that "selection".

Cannot print using RDP, with a custom page size ,on HP Laserjet M1217nfw MFP

Dear Team,
i have on the server win 2008 R2 standard , i have installed the drivers of HP Laserjet M1217nfw MFP printer ,
on the client i have win pro 7 SP1.
i need to print through RDP the documents generated in my application which i access remotely using RDP.
i know the printer drivers are installed on client and server both.
the issue is of creation of custom pages to print the document in proper format so that it prints in the client PC with proper formatting.
we are currently successfully printing on HP Laserjet P3015 printer but at a different location. and i have 5 branches still to be able to print this document from the application,
I need you advise and assistance as to how do i go about achieving my objective with this printer,
Thanking you in advance
regards
Vibes

Hello JBC666,
I understand that you are having an issue with printing wireless from your M1217nfw. I can understand how frustrating this can be. I would like to confirm a couple of things with you to get better understanding of your setup.
1) How far away from the printer is the router?
2) Has there been an recent changes that could have caused the issue?
As well printing a network test report, is an excellent option to find out if there is any issues with the connection at all. I have included the following steps to print the test.
1) Press the wrench button
2) Press the right arrow until you see Network Config
3) Press Ok
4) Press the right arrow until you see Network Test
5) Press Ok
1) Does anything fail on this test?
2) What is the signal quality?
3) Are you able to view the printers embedded web server?
   Steps to accessing the embedded web server
   1) Open up your internet browser
   2) Type the IP address (from the test report) into the address bar
   3) Press Enter
Thank you.

I have the kindle app on my iPad. I downloaded a kindle version of a songbook. I would like to print out a few pages of the music. I cannot download the file to my computer and cannot print from the iPad as the page format does not allow it.

How can I print out a few pages of a kindle ebook (music) from my iPad.
How can I download this book to my iMac from the iPad. It is NOT in my e books library, but I can only access it from my kindle app.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

One work around is, if the Kindle app allows, make a screen cap of the page and print that.
Hold down the sleep and home keys and relase them together....kinda like you'd press the shutter of a camera, a joint quick down and up
You'll see a white flash and hear a shutter sound. Then look in your photos app and you'll see the images. You can print them just like you'd print a photo.

I am using Firefox 11 and I am unable to print web pages. I can print PDFs ok. I tried to open the prefs.js file to delete anything that starts with print and I get an error message.

I cannot print web pages. I've tried the solutions suggested like deleting anything that starts with print in the prefs.js file but I get an error message: Script: c:\users\rick\appdata\roading\mozilla\firefox\profiles\iviwh5c1.default\prefs.js
line: 1
Char: 1
Error: invalid character
code: 800A03F6
Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error

When editing '''prefs.js''' you need to use a simple text editor program. WinXP Notepad messes up the line formatting of prefs.js, so I use Wordpad - but you need to save the edited file in a Text-Only format (Wordpad asks about that when you go to save the edited file). I never used Win7, so I don't know if that version of Notepad messes with the line formatting of prefs.js or not.
Another thing - make sure '''''"Hide extensions for known file types"''''' is de-delected in Windows file / folder options > view -> advanced settings. Otherwise Windows may add a .txt file extension that you won't be able to see, and that will break that file in Firefox. '''prefs.js.txt''' won't be recognized by Firefox, when is expecting to find '''''prefs.js''''' .

Keep recto/verso page placement when printing 'Multiple' pages on single sheet

Dear All,
my book is designed for duplex printing. Every chapter starts on recto (odd) page.
When I need to print it for proofreading in the multiple mode (2 pages on single sheet), pages do not follow the original intent as the first page is placed on the verso page (left half of the sheet), not recto one (right half). I couldn't find any option to place the first page on the recto 'side' in the Print dialog.
My current workaround is to place one blank page at the beginning of my PDF file.
But I'd like to avoid this manual step in the future. Is there a more efficient way?
Btw, it would be nice to add a single option for this into the Print dialog. It could be handy for everyone.
What is the best place for such kind of feature request?
Thanks, Jan

have no idea about what is wrong on your machine.
Here doing that I get a normal behavior:
You may try:
a - quit/close Numbers
trash the preferences file:
<bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Numbers.pli st
empty the trash
restart Numbers.
b - try to do the job from an other user account
tell us how the beast behaves.

Cannot print from web or browser

I have a HP Pavilion dv4-1275mx laptop and an HP 4700 series wireless printer. I can print from Word, e-mails, etc. However, I cannot print web pages. I use Internet Explorer 8 for my browser.
I use Vista Ultimate 64 bit that I recently upgraded to from Vista home premium. Any idea why can't I print web pages? Thanks

I have the same problem and it all started with Tiger. I cannot print from anything from the web (e-mail from aol, comcast, .mac etc) but document printing is fine. Last night I literally spent 1 hour and 20minutes with AOL people and 2 hours and 10 minutes with a VERY helpful hp guy. There is no fix as of now. I get multiple blank sheets and then a portion of an e-mail. Your best bet , until they come out with 10.4.3 is to save the e-mail or web page as a PDF document from the print preview window and save to desktop then print from there. It works, but is slow and cumbersome.
My printer is HP 2210 all in one with the most current driver installed.
