Just this afternoon I tried to print a web page from Yahoo E-mail. From print review I select the page & hit print. A window pops up wanting to save the page as a .XPS file. I tried to print from Yankees.com, a newspaper site & Google mail with the same problem. I CAN print ok from Word & Adobe Photo programs.

If Firefox is wanting to save it as an XPS file, your printer isn't selected in the Printer - Name dialog box.
