(In reply to DaveI from comment #6) > Meaning...When I hit PRINT....NOTHING happens thereafter. Sorry, further clarification would still be helpful. :) (1) I assume you're opening the `File` menu and choosing "Print". Is that right? (Or are you doing Ctrl+P? Or opening Firefox's three-lines "hamburger menu" at the top right and clicking the "print" button in that menu? [note that this actually opens print-preview] Or clicking a "print" button on a website? or something else?) (2) If you're doing File|Print [my best guess]: does that bring up a print dialog? (I'm guessing yes) (3) Assuming "yes" so far: from there, I assume you choose a printer and you hit the "print" button on that dialog, and then what? Is that the part when nothing happens? (which I assume means, the dialog disappears and you're back to looking at a normal Firefox window, and nothing prints? Or something else?) > And yes....I can PRINT .PDF files no problem...I have Firefox set to open ACROBAT READER to open a .PDF file...From there I can print without issue. To clarify, I wasn't asking if you "can print PDF files" -- I was asking if you can print *to* a PDF file. In Windows 10, if you can get the print dialog to show up (which I'm not entirely sure you can), then you should see "Microsoft PDF Printer" as one of the available printers, and that lets you choose a filename and it will generate a PDF file for you, doing a virtual "print" operation. (I ask about this because it helps rule out certain classes of issues -- some problems happen only with remote/real printers, whereas other problems happen even with virtual printers including this the Microsoft PDF Printer.)
