Firefox "print" prints some text on top of other text. How can I fix it?

I want to print a webpage with a travel itinerary on it. The itinerary is quite long, exceeds the page height and overflows onto the next page. Unfortunately the information below the itinerary is then printed on top of the itinerary information on the overflow page.
I have tried the same page in Chrome, Safari and IE 10 and it prints correctly in all of them.
I use a css (print.css media='print') to control some of the print output.
Can anyone help please?

Hi midnig-
I found this article on troubleshooting print issues:
http://mzl.la/MCCq7H
I see that you have covered some of the basic troubleshooting tips- but you might try resetting the printer. Here are some other suggestions:
- If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum/default font size then try the default minimum setting "none" and the default font size 16 in case the current setting is causing problems.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.
- You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

  • Texts are going through twice. How can I fix this?

    Hello I am getting complaints that my texts are going through to people twice. How can I fix this? I do not get messages twice, only my outgoing (although it only shows once on my phone)

    Contact your carrier.
    If being done by your iPhone, the outgoing messages would be shown twice on your iPhone.

  • Updated my IOS 7 now some of my games are not work, how can I fix this problem?

    I have updated my Ipad to the IOS 7 and now some of my games/apps are not working, how can i fix this or revert back to what I had before?

    I'm afraid you'll have to wait until both Apple and the makers of your games/apps upgrade to new versions.
    Apparently there are still some issues with iOS7 that are being dealt with and the same with some apps.
    As for going back, I don't think you will be able to get this information from these forums...

  • Firefox downloads a file with the wrong file extension. How can I fix this?

    The title says it all. When I download files, it comes out with the wrong extension, not sure what extension it comes out as.
    It actually just comes out as "file."
    How can I fix this? Is there something in about:config I can tweak to eliminate this error?

    Hi dartz!
    This type of problems are not related with the browser you are using, in this case, Firefox. This issues are the consequence of the way that the website "packed" the file.
    What you should do is download the file, locate the file, give right click on the file and select "Rename". Now, don't change the name!!! Just add "." and then the extension that you wanted. Example, you download the file "norwegianwood", after renaming it, it should read "norwegianwood.srt".
    Hope this works for you, take care!

  • My Photosmart Plus printer seems to lose connectivity when in sleep mode, how can I fix this?

    My new photosmart plus appears to loose it's connection when it goes to sleep. At least the printers status page online says it's not connected, even though it is visible in my router and the blue light next to the antenna of the printer is on. It also appears to be connected when I poke around in the printer's settings, but if I want to print something from an app or via e-mail I have to run the wireless wizard again, select my netgear and enter the password. Once connected I get a screen where I supposedly can skip printing a report, but that does not work either, it prints no matter what I select, waste of paper and ink.
    I searched around but found no solution that would work for me.
    Tech info:
    wireless conection to my cable modem with Netgear router
    Macbook pro and an older HP laptop are in use.
    Security is WPA2-PSK [AES]
    I like the machine a lot, but this is rather anoying, what can I do to keep the connection when the printer sleeps?
    (edited to add security info)
    This question was solved.

    Does the printer not wake from sleep for both the Mac and PC?
    You may want to try setting a static IP address for the printer:
    - Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
    - Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
    - Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
    - On this screen you want to set a Manual IP.  Enter the current IP address.
    - Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
    - Leave the gateway and DNS blank. Click 'Apply'
    Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
    After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

  • Using FF 26.0 in Archlinux, when I click on the minimize button (top right) ff closes how can I fix that

    I can click on the middle button and move the side or bottom edge so I can access the rest of the desktop but if I click on the left button it closes ff instead of putting an icon on the panel (bar at bottom of desktop).I have never seen this before.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
    '''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
    *Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • I can get to my escoinst website, but firefox keeps kicking me off it after about 15 minutes; how can I fix this problem?

    I use escoinst.com for practice tests for epa classes, but firefox boots me off the site after about 15 minutes. I need to stay on this site for an average of 30 minutes. How can I remedy this problem?

    I just did the about:config....I do not have dom.ip.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll; I do have dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.np2pstub.dll;false. Also, my timeoutSecs is set at 45. I also noticed that a few of the things are listed as userset and the others are default. What should they be? I don't recall setting anything.
    Thanks for any help in resolving this 5 month very frustrating issue.

  • I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 The firefox menu-bar is on the top of the screen - how can I get it into the firefox window?

    Maybe I'm an idiot - this does seem a very simple issue. I can right click on the tab bar and check things like Navigation Bar, or Add-on bar and they all work fine - but the menu bar is stuck on the top of the screen and appears when I role over it. However, sometimes when firefox is automatically opened by some other application (LibreOffice) it comes up in a window with menu-bar onboard. I'm sorry if this is so obvious to everybody else - but it is irritating to me

    Try hitting '''F11'''.

  • Some emails do not appear when open, yet if I reply to the email, the text shows in the reply. How can I fix this?

    When I open certain emails, nothing appears except the headers. Yet when I reply to the message, all the text appears. I have made sure that the setting are correct for these accounts. If I open my email in IE 9, everything appears. Is there a way to fix this? IE is my last choice for browsers.
    Thanks.

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
    If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

    Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

  • Why is text distorted after windows update and how can I fix it?

    Hello,
    this morning my windows vista performed some updates. Afterwards the text in Firefix is bad, sometimes even unreadable, se exampe attached. The text is not bad in IE, but a change back is not desireble. Text was OK before Windows Update Restart. Disabling ClearType makes problem worse. I tried to reset as described on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-preferences-fix-problems, no help.
    Data:
    Acer Travelmate laptop (+6 years), running fully updated Windows Vista, danish language. Firefix 35.0.1.
    What to do next?
    Regards Lars Jensen

    and I'm sorry that the example is not so good after all. Look for the small dots above allmost every letter.
    Tried disabling HW accelleration, no luck.
