I use fire fox and my email is Gmail online. I can open a pdf from an email and it displays properly, but when I hit print it opens a new tab and it is just blank. There is no way to print. If I download the pdf I can print it from the download. This wasn't an issue when I was using chrome. I would prefer not to download each time I need to print something from an email.

Any ideas is there a plug in I should have?

I also just noticed that when print is hit and it opens the new blank tab the file drops into the downloads file. So instead of opening the print preview to let me print it downloads it.
