I can use IE and things work fine. Don't want to use IE. This started on the 26th. Nothing has changed in my system, or hardware. Problem is thus: for example, go to NASCAR.com, then pick one of the series/races and get the list of finishers. click on the button to print it. Used to work fine, now nothing. It will correctly identify the printer, but when you click print, nothing happens. Same problem with many other sites, that was the easiest to explain. As I said when I use IE, things go just fine. Anybody have any clues? Thanks. Doug

On my end everything works fine. Went to nascar.com and printed out the results. Most likely this problem has to do with hardware, not Firefox itself. One question, do you print wirelessly?

No wireless here. Everything hardwired. I am going to uninstall FF and reinstall it again (third time)

After 3 reinstalls, everything works just like it did on Saturday. Nothing changed in the system or in the hardware, but it now works like it did earlier. No clue....

Update: This is a known issue in Firefox 4 beta 12. The latest nightly builds availible here fix this problem: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-mozilla-central/ I was using beta 11 at the time of my reply.
