Hello all.

 

Printer type: HP Laserjet Pro CP-1525nw
Printer Model: CE-875A

OS: Mac OS 10.8.3

Browser: Firefox v 20.0

 

 

When I print from Word or Excel, all is OK.

However, when I print from Firefox, any website (example):

http://www.gentrustwm.com/wp-content/uploads/GenTrust-Perspectives-April-2013.pdf

 

It prints ONLY in Landscape mode. This truncates pages.

I want to change the default setting to Portrait for all printing from Firefox and from Adobe PDF.

I can't find a way to change the setting to PORTRAIT.

  After Command/P, I see PRESETS/SHOW PRESETS/DEFAULT SETTINGS... this shows Orientation=Landscape. However, can't find the way to change the default.

 

Please advise how to do this?

I have the same problem.   All of the sudden Firefox reverted to landscape default.    We have 3 HP printers and it does it on all printers

 

It's not Yahoo or Gmail, it's everything we print in Firefox

 

Any help would be appreciated

Fixed it.

 

In Firefox go to  the menu

 

File

Page Setup

Portrait

100%

Shrink to fit

 

Close and restart FF

 

That should fix it.

Bingo, nicely done. Was driving me crazy, what with the default defined as Portrait in Devices and Printers.  I … uh, love you … :LaughingTears:
