I used to be able to print correctly using Firefox as my browser,but something changed in the last month or so,possibly after a Firefox update. I`m not really sure how it happened but there seems to be a problem between Firefox and my printer. So I have been using Internet Explorer as my default so I can print. I would prefer to use Firefox again since that is where my bookmarks are. Is there a way to get the connection between Firefox and my printer back?

Save as = sounds like you don't have your printer selected, or you have Print to file selected

So how do I change or delete Print to file

Un-check that box. Right-side of the print dialog box, just above the center point.
