When I change the header and footer settings while printing and check the print images and background boxes and print something when I go to print again the settings all revert back to the default settings. I have Last Used Settings chosen and it still reverts back to default settings. I can create a preset and use it but the settings I saved are not correct, they are the default settings. Please help.

Note: Some software, like Advanced SystemCare with Surfing Protection, can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes. If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.
