The only sites I can print with firefox are pdf. Any other websites try to print the page in small pieces. For example this page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Print) in Internet Explorer prints one page. In firefox this page prints 11 pages with small pieces of the page on each one. I homeschool and have to print a lot of pages every day. I am tired of switching to IE to print them. Is there a solution to this problem?

Thank you so much!!! I have been struggling with this issue for months and could not find a solution. I was very frustrated. I followed your link and then followed the instructions for resetting the printer. I had to reset each one but it worked. :)
