  • I have Mozilla Ffox on a Dell Vostro Desktop computer, connected to a HP-Officejet 6500. The printer prints internal drive, but don't print Web sites. The printer ejects only a single sheet of blank paper.

    The version of Firefox 4.0.1 and Windows 7 operating system are
    correctly identified below.
    Still, my printer prints not websites, including Yahoo mail. The printer seems to respond to Web sites, but only ejects a single sheet of blank paper when printing is initialized.

    Just to be sure, everything is covered:

    1. Reset you all the preferences of print.printer , as indicated in brackets in step 2, who were in "BOLD", not only print.print_printer preference?
    2. You you exit Firefox (Firefox button > exit OR file > exit, if you use the Menu bar), and then wait a few seconds and restart Firefox before testing the change according to step 4?
    3. I have a HP 6200 series. Don't forget, if yours is a multifunction printer that you have NOT enabled the fax (i.e., "HP Officejet 6200 series" NOT 'HP Officejet 6200 series fax') in the name field of the printer on the screenshot (CTRL + P).

    The upgrade to Windows XP?


    Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.


    Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).




    More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

    1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

    2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

    3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

    4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

    5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

    If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.
