I need to access a network printer which is on the internal side of the firewall. FF won't make the connection reporting that it is not trusted. FF knows I have made 88 connections to this printer in an earlier version of FF. But FF 58 won't play ball How do I change the security settings for this one ip address so i can get at the printer web set up page?

How is your network printer configured?

The printer is on an internal network with a fixed ip. This is not outside the DMZ or on the internet.

I need FFv58 to access the web page set-up in the printer to configure settings.

I can do this with IE, but FFv58 reports that the site is un-trusted and refuses to allow any permission changes to FFv58 configuration that will grant access to the printer ip address or the printer web configuration page. this is the same problem for the internal WiFi access points needing configuration. I have to use IE to make any configuration changes

this latest version of FF is where the problem is. I never had any problems before with earlier versions of FF
