Reader Plugin for Firefox will not allow selection of grayscale printing

All:
When I print normally from Firefox 2 I can select color or grayscale. When the reader add-on is in use I am not given the option to print in grayscale.
The same situation exists if I save the PDF file to my computer and try to print.
I used the HP device manager to set the printer but cups overrides this.
Fedora 8
Firefox 2.0.0.16
Adobe reader 8.1.2_su1-1.i486.
My apologies but Firefox 3 has too many issues to think about upgrading yet.
Thank you, Bob

See if this helps you.

Under Removing the plugin it mentions looking in the '''Extensions''' tab of the Add-ons manager, so that '''''plugin''''' installs as an extension, so Firefox does have to be open to install that "plugin".

  • My system needs internet explorer for a application I need to down load, however I need to down load the latest yahoo tool bar for internet explorer to work properly and firefox will not allow the down load of yahoo toolbar. How do I fix this?

    I have not used Internet explorer since downloading firefox and I need IE for a trading platform that I need to use.

  • I need assistance. I signed up for The Novel Network and now Firefox will not allow me access. I'm a computer dolt and don't know what to do next

    Firefox will not allow me to access the area of this site to allow me

    Thank you!
    Here are my answers, as best I know how to present them:
    1.  I can see a big red "f".  It's not flashing or moving or anything.  Does that count as animation?
         There is also an empty box with an X in the corner, as if a pop-up is blocked, or something.
    2.  I see 2 things under Adobe, called Adobe PDF Reader Link Helper and Adobe PDF Link Helper, both enabled.
    3.  I see Flash10m.ocx; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX; Get Flash; swflash; FlashInstall; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.dll; and install.

  • Firefox will not allow Flash player to work. How do I enable Flash to work in Firefox? Thank you.

    Question
    Firefox will not allow Flash player to work. Every site that uses Flash player gives me a message saying that I need to update to the latest version of Flash player, but I have done so, and I keep getting the same message. How do I enable Flash to work in Firefox? Thank you.

    You can hold down the Shift key and double click the Firefox desktop icon to start Firefox in [[Safe mode]].

    Hi Don,
    I apologize for the delay in your service.
    sometimes it takes a bit to configure your subscription, i can see your subscription order is not yet completed, it is still in pending state.
    It might take 24 hours. We regret the inconvenience.

  • Firefox will not allow me to view my own domains. Other people can see them.How do I get access?

    Every since I got my new computer, running windows 7, firefox will not allow me to see my own domains. If I unplug Netgar and plug directly into the Wild Blue modem, I can see them with IE or Chrome - but still not with Firefox.
    My Old computer, running XP can see my domains via the Netgear router. Computers running Vista cannot
    GoDaddy is my host.

    Hi cor-el,
    Thanks for the reply. I tried those things with no result. Then I followed the link you sent and found something that MIGHT be the answer if I can find someone to show me how to "send a ping" and "define the subnetmask."
    I have no idea what a subnetmask is, let alone how to define it!
    But I do feel that the problem has some connection to the router. My old computer has one IP address, while the 3 that won't work all share a different one.
    It would really help if I spoke "compuetreze," but I don't.
    Thanks again,
    Marte

  • Adobe Reader plugin for Firefox 3

    Has anyone else been having problems reading some pdfs using the Adobe Reader plugin for Firefox 3?
    For several months this often (but not always) happens:
    I follow a link to a .pdf, a new window opens with a blue progress bar in the middle.
    It gets to 100%, but then nothing happens, it just sits there with the progress bar full and "Done" in the status bar.
    Interestingly,  I also have the "IE Tab" extension installed and if I click on the icon  to change the browser engine, the page reloads (with a slightly  different progress bar that includes a counter for the file size) and  the document is always displayed correctly when the download is  completed.
    the Adobe Acrobat plug-in is v10.1.0.534.

    http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
    You'll find previous versions there as well as the latest builds, but I honestly don't see why you'd not like 4.0. After all, this is Firefox we're talking about not IE, which seems to only get worse with each new release.

  • When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. How can I resolve this?

    Question
    When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. When I swap to private browsing firefox allows me to anter the website address directly into the location bar - but this is a slow [prcess to swap back and forth - also by dint of using private browsing I loose my website information.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Internet Explorer ONLY passes parameters to Adobe Reader plugin for hosted files, not local

    WORKS:
    <embed src="http://host.com/test.pdf#page=5"/>
    FAILS:
    <embed src="test.pdf#page=5"/>
    Both code snippets above work when the HTML file is hosted (IIS / Apache).  My web-app needs to be able to run from a USB memory stick and work with IE9.  The #page param is required for a core feature of the app.
    Parameters after the # are passed correctly to the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox for offline files, eg: file:///C:/test.htm.  The documentation only describes hosted examples: http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf
    I have tried the <object> route as well with similar results, eg: http://pdfobject.com/
    I have burned over 8 hours looking for a solution. I have tried any logical settings in Adobe Reader X, and with the security zones in IE.  I am not very familiar with IE security zones, but I suspect it could be related to my issue.  I can specify the end-user change any browser or plugin settings as an acceptable solution.

    I am developing a hybrid web-application that needs to work both offline (entire website) and in a hosted environment.  A key part of the product is displaying PDF's with a dynamic index outside of the PDF. This allows us to use PDF's collected from hundreds of contractors, clients and manufacturers and combine them into one searchable product with a consistent interface.  I can specify product requirements including IE browser settings, installed plug-ins etc. I am not trying to cater to a wide audience such as everyone online, but a specific one that is spending $5k-30k for a custom resource.
    I expect the limiation is due to a wide cast net regarding security.  I tried every setting in IE and essentially fully disabling all security options did not resolve it.
    I found a solution, by accessing the ActiveX object directly you can use the exposed classes described here: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/w whelp.htm?context=Acrobat9_HTMLHelp&file=IAC_API_OLE_Objects.103.167.html
    Javascript:
    var pdfO = document.getElementById('pdfObj');
    pdfO.setCurrentPage(pageNumber);
    HTML:
    <OBJECT id ="pdfObj" data="test.pdf" TYPE="application/pdf">
        <a href="test.pdf">Fall-back code</a>
    </OBJECT>
    This actually works much faster as well, since the plugin doesn't need to be re-drawn in the DOM

  • Firefox will not allow Screen Saver...Why?

    Windows came up with new Wallpapers and Screen Savers, and I decided to change mine.
    The Wallpaper on my Desktop page loaded quickly. But when I select a Screen Saver, then click on "OK", it appears to be in place. Only, it's not!! When I go back into "Control Panel", I find that my Screen Saver is blank, again. I re-set it just like I previously did, and clicked
    on "OK". Four Times I've re-set Screen Saver, but it doesn't register
    or.........Firefox is not allowing it.

    You're welcome. I look forward to the day that Mozilla writes all new print-related code so we don't have to deal with problems like this.

  • Why does my antivirus software BitDefender 2011 say that Firefox will not allow the anti phicshing tool to be enabled?

    When installing Bitdefender 2011, updated from 2010 version a message was received to say that the most recent version of Firefox does not allow the anti phisching tool to be installed. I am concerned that this leaves me open to attack. I use Firefox because I believed that it was more secure than Internet explorer but am now not sure. Please advise.

    Firefox '''''comes with''''' Phishing protection as a standard feature. <br />

  • Firefox will not allow use of my Outlook 2003 email even when default it tries to use Windows Live.

    Using Firefox 3.6.12 on Win7, Outlook 2003 email. Firefox will not use my Outlook email even when set as the default, or when "always asked" is used. Always tries to open Windows Live when "sending link", or with website hyperlinks for email.

    This has all been done and the problem persists.
    It tries to open Outlook first, then the message "Navigation to this webpage was cancelled" and it proceeds to open Windows Live mail.
    I don't know if the problem is with Outlook or Firefox..
