Hi, I can't print in Firefox. I started the troubleshooting process, but when it gets to resetting the print.print_printer option I can't because it doesn't exist in my about:config. Is there anyway to fix this?

Hello ideato, I deleted and added my printer and that solved my problem. Thank you for your info though. Regards pierrot_1972
