Why has my Thunderbird suddenly started printing the machine code rubbish in the middle if the page instead of the proper email?

I am using Windows 8.1 and an Epson XP-405 printer. My Thunderbird email reader has been working OK, but now, when I try to print out an email message, I get all the machine code printed, but no actual message. This has occurred suddenly and now i am unable to print out emails at all. The actual print out us unreadable to a human being. (Except maybe a geek)! I would prefer not to see all this rubbish on the page anyway!

Robin Pearn.

I have resolved my own problem. It was, View," Headers", that had been set to, "All". I have set to, Normal", and the problem has disappeared.
