URL, title etc of webpages do not print on pages printed off internet despite selecting these in header/footers in page set up. How do I get URL etc to print on the page?

No matter how I try I cannot get the URL of a webpage or other options such as page title, date etc to print if I print up a webpage. I have done the necessary selections in file>page setup>headers & footers choosing the options from the drop downs. I have even tried making top or bottom margin bigger thinking there was not space on the page. This is still the case if I try to print to different printers.

Is there something I am missing that needs to be done via some other setting or menu item?

You can try to reset the print prefs and try again to do the page setup.

Thanks, this was a good idea to try, however it doesn't seem to have helped. I reset: print.print_printer Also tried resetting: print.printer_Lexmark_6500_Series.print_footercenter print.printer_Lexmark_6500_Series.print_footerleft print.printer_Lexmark_6500_Series.print_footerright print.printer_Lexmark_6500_Series.print_headercenter; print.printer_Lexmark_6500_Series.print_headerleft print.printer_Lexmark_6500_Series.print_headerright

Closed and restarted the browser.

I then selected URL in footer right in page setup but still it refuses to show in print preview or print on the page in hard print. It is most peculiar. Any other ideas? Thanks.
