Updated from 45 to 47. Can't print from Firefox. Message comes up "preparing" then hangs. Clinking on firefox window comes up "Not Responding". Have to kill Firefox and re-start. Printing works after installing 46.0.1

Yes, updating to 49 fixed the problem. Thanks.

Strange thing is I did asked Firefox to check for updates and it told me I was up to date with 47.0.1.
