I am not sure exactly what your problem is; however, after the Firefox update, printing now takes forever. I use to be able to click on print and have a document print virtually immediately. Now, I click print and have time to eat breakfast, take a shower and get dressed before the frigging thing prints out. This is definitely NOT a printer problem since the printer is connected via a network to a Windows machine. Clicking on the same document in IE results in the document being printed immediately. Somehow, somewhere, something got seriously broken in Firefox. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+fbsd@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored. Do not CC this poster.
