If that software is having issues printing then you need to contact them not FF since FF doesn't own or create Samba pdf software.

Okey, i was wondering that if it was FF issue or samba pdf printer, because it works on some websites. But why then same thing works with IE? Tried same pages in IE used same samba pdf printer but pdf had selectable text, while the one create in FF didn't.


update: Tested with FF esr 45.7.0 and pdf printer created pdf with selectable text. Seems that it doesn't work after FF esr 52.
