Try Ctrl+p to call up the Print dialog.
Do you have the "3-bar" menu button ( 
) on your toolbar? The Print item there will take you to Print Preview.
If you want to display the classic menu bar temporarily, you can tap the Alt key or the F10 key. Then you can use File > Print or File > Print Preview.
To display the menu bar permanently, you can choose it from the toolbar list displayed using any of these:
- right-click a blank area of the tab bar
- right-click the "+" button on the tab bar
- tap the Alt key > View > Toolbars
- "3-bar" menu button > Customize > Show/Hide Toolbars
Hopefully one of those is convenient.
Or you can add Print to the right-click context menu using an add-on.

1.) Ctrl-p prints the whole page not a selected picture. so ndoes not work. 2.) Three bar button prints whole page not selected picture or text. it is very common the 3-bar button is not available. 3.) menu bar print prints the entire page not selected. not an option. 4.) installing an add-on is equal to crawling through a dark tunnel full or scorpions, climbing a wooden ladder while its on fire then swimming through a pool of boiling acid, I am still to traumatized to talk about what comes next, lake of molten lava (true story)............. and then the add-on does not work right or something else stops working usually both .........add-on not an option
This should be a simple thing,,,,,,, MS internet explorer has has this funtionality for almost twenty years now.
LOOKS like firefox is going to the trash can.........
Hi STUPIDCPU, I should have been clearer. I was responding to this part of your post:
even if i view and image there is no print capability not even a right click print. no menu option are avalable.
I explained how to print an image you displayed in its own tab or window.
Been there, been that frustrated over Firefox not having a Contextual Menu Print item - been shaking my head over that since August of 2002 when I switched from IE6 to Phoenix 0.3 (the early development version of what became known as Firefox).
Fortunately Firefox is so extensible that many extension developers early on "fixed" that glaring deficiency or oversight. Extensions are your friend in Firefox! You don't like a feature, change it; something is "missing", add it!
As cor-el mentioned, the Universal Print extension adds the Right-click menu item and there are other extensions that add that menu item, too.
Here's two more that add that feature: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/printprint-preview/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit/
The last one is phenomenal! Allows you to edit a page in Print Preview to get rid of advertisements, unnecessary navigation sidebars, and lessen the number of sheets of paper needed to print longer articles - basically make your own "printer ready" pages when the website doesn't have that feature.
