In the print window I turn the header and footer to blank but every time I print there back and I have to turn them off again. How do I make this permanent. I saved a preset after turning them off but they still are there when I come back. Page setup offers no options other than printer and paper size.

Hello jharger,

Would you please try this :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar print.print

Look for these preferences :

print.print_headercenter print.print_headerleft print.print_headerright print.print_footercenter print.print_footerleft print.print_footerright

Double click on each one and remove the text in the box.

This will remove the header and footer information when you print.

Then close and restart Firefox.

'Hope that works for you ......
