When I try to print something like my 1099 tax form or any form with numbers in it I only get explanation or question marks where the numbers should be. It works alright in Safari. I have a mac desktop and the latest operating system of Mojave version 10.14.3. I have updated Firefox and reset Firefox printer settings. I have an Epson WorkForce 610 printer.

You can check for sandbox security issues when Firefox has a problem to access fonts installed locally.

You can set this pref to 2 or 1 on the about:config page to reduce the sandbox security level.

  • security.sandbox.content.level = 1
  • close and restart Firefox to make the change effective.

If '1' still doesn't have effect then try '0' to disable the sandbox.

If this didn't work then undo/reverse the change and reset the pref via the right-click context menu to the default value.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner but I was unable to attach a copy of the document in question so I finally gave up and deleted firefox off my computer.
