Q: Printing with Safari and Firefox

Lately, some websites say they don't support the older SAFARI browsers. When I print something, the print is extremely weak even with a new print cartridge.

When I print with FIREFOX, the print is crisp but the print menu does not show any pages. Therefore, I am not able to select the pages I want to print. Is there a solution?

    Firefox uses its own print panel, and has a button near the bottom that will either display Show Details, or Hide Details (abbreviated panel). The ability to print from _ to _ is available to you on the larger Show Details panel.

    Thank you for very much for your answer. I had not made myself clear, though. What I meant was that when printing with Firefox I could not see the pages in Print Preview. Therefore, with a long text file, I could not tell the printer which pages to print unless I needed to print the whole document.

    In the meantime I found a Firefox Add-On, "Print/Print Preview", which shows the pages with page numbers in Preview. Now I see exactly what pages I need to print. Thanks again for your response.
