I'm unable to print a page of web... pop box appears, asking you to save the file. When cancelled, unknown error message appears. Other browsers ok.

This has happened

Don't know how many times

Make sure that your printer is selected at the top of this dialog box, and who print to file is not selected in the middle of this box.

  • Firefox only prints the date in prints of web page

    I'm on Firefox 11.0 and are unable to print the date and time printed on web page is printed. Layout looks OK and includes the date and time in the bottom of the right hand. Versions prior (V3?) did print the date, but do not print the last few versions (or title numbers, URL or page).

    You may need the paper size defined defined too much causing the URL don't not to print.

    Try resetting the printing preferences.

  • The print page opens not when I try to print a Web page.

    I use Firefox for many months and so far I have had no problem printing a Web page. I was away for a week and discovered this problem yesterday when I tried to print a Web page. Maybe there was some changes during the week that I'm not aware of?

    This happens on all websites or is it on particular websites?

    Normally, a button to launch a page in the print format appears in a new window. Blocker integrated in Firefox allows popups generated by a user by clicking, but if you have additional security modules, maybe one of them is blocking those.

    Could test you mode without failure of Firefox? It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

    Does not work if Firefox: Hold down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox.

    If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
    • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

    and OK reboot.

    Two scenarios: A small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not update).

    Any improvement?

  • Size adapted during the printing of web pages no longer works correctly

    If I choose the scale to fit, the impression is ridiculously small. If I turn off appropriate size and scale is 100%, it turns 3-page 11-page document and each page is trashed. He is brother laser & printing of normal files (not web) is fine, as is printing of web pages in IE. Tried to reset the settings of the print for brother in all: config.

    Is a visible problem in preview before print or preview looks normal and only the real impression is wrong?

    Firefox seems to use only part of the page? Sometimes, Firefox saves a wrong paper size setting. This can be a non intuitive such as name

    printer_printer_name.print_paper_data
    

    At least two other users (one said he had a Brother printer) find this 256 value and change to 1 in all: config solved their problem.

  • All-in-one HP Envy 4500: printing a Web page

    The procedure to print a web page has changed all of a sudden.

    Until today, it's simple. I clicked on the print icon in the bookmarks bar. This launches the print dialog box. I then clicked on 'Préférences' to select the print quality and finally on 'print '.

    Today, I wanted to print confrmation of a command line. When I click on anything that is in the print dialog box, another window open.

    I managed to select my printer, but when I clicked 'Print' nothing happened. In addition, I could not any setting beyond the number of copies and if you want to print on one or both faces. What is going on?

    Hi @hbf1842,

    What is the new name of the printer now listed as default printer in devices and printers? (Like 4500 or class envy 4500)

    If the class driver is installed, it would be a preinstalled Windows driver and it should not the automatic option to duplex. You will need to remove and add the urge to 4500.

    If you still experience problems, uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.

    The HPePrint driver is automatically installed with Windows 8. Just make sure that it is not selected as the default printer in the future.

    Thank you!

  • Impossible to print a Web page using photosmart premium c309a using Internet Explorer 9.

    I just installed Internet Explorer 9. Now, I can't print a Web page using my network photosmart premium c309a. I also have a Photosmart c6250 networked and I peut print for her. What gives? Am I missing something? I know that this is a known problem by searching the problem and Windows solution does not help.  I have no problem with the c309a print when I go to the internet, it's just a problem of Web page with IE9.  All/any help would be appreciated.

    HP helped me by making me install a different driver. Download and install the printer driver 6980. After installation, go to the printer properties and add a new Standard TCP/IP port and use IP address for the c309a.  I don't think I'm missing something, but I received the information from their chat support.  Then, when you want to print from IE9, choose the 6980 printer (which is actually the c309a printer).  This HP support doesn't help.  You must talk to a living person who knows something about printers.

    I hope this helps.  In fact, I switched to Mozilla Firefox as my default long ago, and it works very well with the c309a printer.  I only got this solution because I could be chatting with them on another printer and I mentioned that I could not print from IE9.

  • Printing a Web page to a .pdf or .xps file generates a file but it is empty. How can I fix it? I have Firefox 40.0 on a new computer laptop for Windows 10

    When I print a Web page to a .pdf or .xps file, it creates a new file, but file Explorer says it's 0 KB in size. These .pdf files will open, but they are white - the only thing that appears is the outline of a page, without anything in the outline. When I print an .xps file, File Explorer shows that it contains 0 KB. When I try to open it, I get a message saying that the XPS Viewer cannot open the file. These things just started for me a few days after I installed Firefox 40.0 on a new computer laptop of Toshiba Satellite with 10 Home Windows operating system. I have the latest version of Flash Player (in fact, I just tried redownloading and reinstalling the current version; that does not solve the problem). I tried to change the format by default to print to .pdf file, but that has not solved the problem. I contacted the chat Windows support site; They told me that it was not a Windows problem. Is this a Firefox problem? If so, you can tell me how to solve the problem, please?

    Thank you

    First of all, try to disable the extensions to see if that helps this, then try safe mode.

  • print not web page - menu "save under" if poster - unknown problem dialog box then appears. Only recently-, does not happen in Explorer?

    Try to print a Web page or a selection from them.
    When 'file' - select 'print' on the tabs of Mozilla, it doesn't. The print menu appears, but when 'print' clicked, the menu box "save under" appears. When "save under" is closed, a dialog box appears saying "unknown error during printing. Cannot print Web page unless a screen saver (ie the entire screen). This has happened only recently (update may). Tried it on Windows Explorer and all is ok

    After checking the problem existed in all places - found silly finger pain. When selecting 'print' noticed "Selected printer" had been changed from my normal i865 of "Microsoft Office Document Image Writer"!
    Once changed back all O.K.
    Thanks for your trouble
