Firefox v33 knocked out my Adobe 7 pro PDF printer plugin. PDFs print OK from other applications. It happened a few times randomly, and it seemed to resolve spontaneously, but now it is persistent. I've done scans for malware, which I suspected, but nothing showed up, nor corrected it with cleaning.

I had this problem before, and I found directions on how to rest the printer within Firefox, but I've forgotten how or where I got it. I did try to re-install in control panel, but this appears to be a firefox issue. How do i rest the plugin or Firefox to once again print PDFs from browser pages. I need to use this feature printing receipts etc.

These are the instructions on how to reset the printer settings in Firefox: Fix printing problems in Firefox

However as for the add on you may be able to change how Firefox handles specific mime types, if Adobe 7 pdfs have a different mime type? Applications panel - Set how Firefox handles different types of files

Are you using a toolbar button (Create PDF extension) or a printer driver (selecting Adobe PDF or Distiller in the Print dialog) to generate the PDF? Older versions of Create PDF have been reported not to work any more (by older I mean from Acrobat X or earlier), but the printing method should still work.
