How do i get Firefox to print web pages in black and white only (colors are interpreted in grayscale and some are too light to be read)?

i have a black and white laser printer. Firefox prints web pages by sending color images to my printer. The printer uses greyscale to interpret the colors. i really want Firefox to send black and white images to my printer, because with greyscale some of the colors are translated to print that is too light to be seen clearly.
Can this be done?
Thanks,
Chazbo

i just tried disabling adblock and checking if i had any no script or noscript sort of addon. i do not have a script killer. disabling adblock did not solve the issue.

Can't get firefox to print web pages or e mail via internet

HP computer will not print in HP printer from firefoz 7. Printing works from IE Exployer

Printing web pages hogs the cpu. Only after printing is completely finished, I can access firefox again. Otherwise I get "not responding" error.

The print dialog comes when printing web pages and only when it goes away and printing finished, I can access the browser again.

This is not a cure but will make it easier if Firefox locks up.

How do I get Firefox to print the entire web page instead of truncating when it gets to end of first print page?

Firefox 3.6.8, Windows XP Pro
Frequently when I try to do a print of a web page, I end up printing only whatever fits on the first printed page. Instead of continuing to later pages as needed, the rest of the displayed web page is simply ignored.

How can I get a Japanese flash web page to display 100% correctly?

I've tried everything I can think of but I can't get some of this web site's font to display correctly. Some of the flash shows in the correct, Japanese, characters, but some of it shows as code. If I log in as a different user, and set that user's International Language preferences to Japanese, the web page displays correctly. But, when I change users, and go back to the English user, the page displays in a mix of Japanese and messed-up code.
Here is the page: http://weathernews.jp/livecam/
If I click onto a different page of that website, http://weathernews.jp/map/
the writing appears as Japanese in the box, at the bottom of the map.
But, if you click on that map, and zoom in 3-times, to the city level, the font in the box under the hourly weather and weekly weather appears as code, and not Japanese.
I'm guessing that it is a problem with the computer booting-up as being English or Japanese, and the browser, then not being able to detect which version of flash to run, the Japanese or English version, cannot display the font correctly.
Why does it happen only on some pages and not all of the pages on that site?
Can it be fixed?
If so, how?
Thanks!

Yeah, I tried Opera and Firefox, but I get the same garbled text. The only thing that makes that page open and display correctly is switching to a different user, and making that user's main language Japanese, in the international settings.
Of course none of this is all that important, I mean, it's about viewing a weather page, but I am just curious why some of the Flash is read or written so that an English language set user can see some of it displayed correctly, but not all of it, where as a user set to Japanese language settings can get all pages correctly.
I know it has to do with how the Flash Macromedia sees the main language setting for the computer, but what I don't get, is how come a user using Japanese as the main language can read English and Japanese Flash pages (pages with English commanded Java come up correctly), but using English as the main language only allows me to view Flash pages written using English commands. Can I change my Flash program to read Japanese pages, without changing my computers main language to Japanese? Or am I stuck with a Flash program that must match the main language the user is using?

How do I get Started with Dynamic Web Pages?

I am presently following Janine Warner's Dreamweaver CS3 video series. I noted that the Advanced part of this tutorial series focuses on Dynamic Web Pages, but only uses Cold Fusion. From what I can gather, CF costs around $1000, while PHP is free! My question is really this: in going from static to dynamic web design I'M A COMPLETE NEWBIE, so what do I need? I am doing some planning here -- I know it won't happen overnight.
(BTW: I was surprised to discover that CF is NOT included in my CS3 Master Collection). It might appear then that support for PHP is better than for CF?
Apparently, I need a server -- well, OK I have PCs to spare. Fast internet, I also have: Comcast standard -- 12MP
Now, I think I also need Apache -- which apparently runs on the server and does something.
So then I DL PHP, figure out how it works, and it will integrate with DW CS3 in some way.
Now, what have I missed? Is there some really basic, first-time-with-using-a-server place or tut I should go to or read? Before you ask: No, I'm doing all this myself on a shoestring budget.
Are there expensive hosting fees for dynamic web sites or other items I will run into? Can I just use a PC over my Comcast cable as the server run from my home? (Really high traffic is not anticipated)
All recommendations appreciated, thanks.
Thom

Many of these questions have already been answered in your thread in the Dreamweaver General Discussion forum, so I'll just stick to a few basics.
You need a server whichever server-side technology you choose, but "server" is not a physical machine, but a piece of software that you install on your development computer. You'll find details of how to install a PHP environment in the following article: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php.html.
Similar instructions are available for setting up a ColdFusion server at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_coldfusion.html. The article is for ColdFusion 8, but ColdFusion 9 is installed in exactly the same way.
Hosting for PHP/MySQL is plentiful and relatively cheap. However, make sure the hosting company offers a minimum of PHP 5.2 and MySQL 5.1. Hosting for CF is harder to find and tends to be a bit more expensive, but not prohibitively so.

How can i get Firefox to show on the whole screen/ it just uses the middle of the screen and not the whole screen Thank you

Certain web sites only use the middle of the monitor screen and do not show all their content on the right

You can use one of these extensions to adjust the default font size and page zoom on web pages:
* Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6965
* NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2592

How can I get Firefox to print at normal size (like IE). to a full A4 page,?

Up to about 3 updates ago, amy printing from Firefox worked fine. Since then an A4 pahe is squessed into the top LH corner (about 1/4 the size). So if I need to print anything from the browser (e.g. a map) I have to use IE. Looks like a bug in that update. As I assumed this would be fixed next time round I didn't bother reporting it; but it's still not sorted.

How can I get Firefox to use Front Page 2003 as an editor for my website?

I have a website called www.gethsemanechurch.net. I use Front Page 2003 to update and maintain the site. Currently this was all being done using IE. However, my IE is now updated to IE10 and I am having problems with IE10. I figured I would try to use Firefox at this time.
My OS is Win 7 and I am on a desktop.

How do you use FrontPage now: do you edit your web locally and then upload it? Or do you edit the pages "live" on the site? Whichever browser you use, your workflow does not need to change. The main difference would be when you preview local files: FrontPage is likely to launch the local pages in your default browser.
With respect to editing ''inside'' Firefox, you can switch your source code viewer from the built-in window to an external program such as FrontPage. However, the file that opens in FrontPage in that scenario will be a local copy in a temp folder, it won't be your live website. For best results, I suggest continuing to do your edits directly in FrontPage.
Also... if you find that FrontPage is not creating pages compatible with Firefox, you may be able to adjust the settings, or you have the option to change to a completely different editor. One free one I've seen suggested is [http://www.bluegriffon.org/ BlueGriffon].

How can I get Firefox to open the page of a link I've clicked on in an email?

Every time I click on a link, in an email (or in Facebook), unless a Firefox page is already open, I usually get my home page first. Then I have to go back to the email window to access the link again to get the page I wanted from the link. Is there a workaround?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Not sure... maybe some months ago?

That is this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531552 - Firefox 3.6b opens two windows when opening external links

After restarting my computer firefox is deleted for Windows, when i try to open firefox a message pops up saying the program has been moved from its original location and is unable to run How do I get Firefox on my computer permanently?

I have tried everything I could to fix this, but some things require actually being on Firefox, and since I cannot get on, I cannot click on the tabs to do it. I have even totally uninstalled firefox, and that has not fixed this. I still get the same message that firefox is running and I need to close it or restart (which I have also tried dozens of times). I have removed things like Java, and that has not helped either. If I cannot even get on line in firefox, how can I fix this. I am not crazy about using internet explorer, but right now, it is my only option. I even tried to start in safe mode, and the same message box pops up!

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''''' .
