It seems I am unable to use .XPS on Firefoxs (Ver. 26). Firefox does not open the dialogue box that enables me to save the object. Instead I get the message that the 'Printer is not responding'!

When using Windows Explorer the process runs smoothly. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall FF. No change.

You can only use IE to display XPS files directly.

Firefox doesn't know about this file.
