Browser won't print website graphics - only text

Does anyone know how to print up web pages so that the graphics on that page will show up and not just the text? I have tried printing with both Firefox and Safari and both refuse to print the graphics. I have a new Epson Color Printer.

Any advice, suggestions would be great.

Thanks.

Hi Patrice,

This is strange... I'd like to figure out how to just print text & forgwt the graphics, but oh well...

When you go to Print, go to the bottom where it says PDF, click on that & sSave to PDF, once done, look at it in Preview by double clicking on it.

Do the Graphics show up there?

If so, as a test Print that page.

What comes out?

s there possibly a setting in he Epson driver to skip Graphics?

Neither Firefox or Safari have a setting that stops the images on a site from being printed. Therefore there must be a setting with your printer driver that is causing the incorrect output.

As a test, choose to print but from the print dialog, select PDF and save the file. If this PDF has the images, then you know its something to do with the Epson driver.
