My printer won't print when I run Firefox

Sponsored Links
I have an HP printer-scanner C4100 Series works perfectly. For some time, I am unable to print anything from Firefox: text, image ... = A blank. All prints when I pass by Opera or IE. Is there a blockage somewhere in the Firefox browser? Have you ever encountered this same problem?

Should at least go to IE7 or Firefox better for the printer problem on IE8, if you reinstall do this:

* Click on Control Panel
* Click on Programs and Features (with Vista) or Add / Remove (in XP)
* In the list of installed programs, uninstall if present: Microsoft Software

Re: My printer won't print when I run Firefox

I had a problem printing in Firefox unpublished, I post here the resolution of this problem.
Problem:
The problem was as follows: after installing a printer Samsung SPP-2040B Photo size (10x15 cm), all printing in Firefox took into account even when a 10x15 cm A4 printer was used. The impression was also completely distorted when it was sent to the printer (a Canon MP130).

Re: My printer won't print when I run Firefox

Solution
In my particular case, I noticed that for other users, printing working properly.
So he must go into Documents and Settings / User / Application Data / Mozilla /Firefox/ Rep specific and edit the prefs.js file in Notepad as follows:
Replace:
user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_data", 120); user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_height", "11.00") user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_size", 3276853); user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer. print_paper_size_type ", 0); user_pref (" print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_size_unit ", 0);
by
user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_data", 9); user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_height", "11.00") user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_size", 3997797); user_pref ("print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer. print_paper_size_type ", 0); user_pref (" print.printer_Canon_MP130_Series_Printer.print_paper_size_unit ", 1);

Re: My printer won't print when I run Firefox

I have a problem to print with my Epson DX 4400. I cannot print a selection on a web page, ca prints full page. This does not come from the printer, as in Mozilla Firefox, printing the selection normally.

.. THANK YOU for your answers, and good day.

This is not because the printing works correctly with Firefox as the printer driver is not in question. See if there is not an update of that driver, just in case. It can also come from the web page and its code. Is routine on any page or only on some. If this is a site for all audiences and not requiring registration, can you give us the address of the page. This will check with different browsers. Finally, we must also recognize that the printing has never been the strong point of Firefox.
