It has been for a month or 2 that I have not been able to print anything in my Firefox browser (It used to work just fine). I have no problem at all printing in Chrome ( I never use Internet Explorer ). Is it possible that my new printer is the problem? I had an HP now I have an Epson. That is the only change I have made that I am aware of.

A few weeks ago I had to print out an email, but the only way I could get it printed was to take a screen shot and paste it in a program that would print it.

The error message I get is: Printer Error An error occurred while printing.
