Printer wont print after installing NoScript on Firefox

Post by Bear461Meat »

My printer, HP6500n, was working just fine until I installed the NoScript Firefox add-on. Since, it hasn't responded to any print jobs. The print jobs go to que however, they just end up "holding" or "processing" forever and never print, nor get out of the que state they're in. No type of document will print. Any thoughts out there on this? Similar problems? Thanks

Does disabling NoScript (Tools > Add-ons Manager > NoScript > Disable > Yes, remove ALL protections) get it working?

No. When I had NoScript running all print jobs were "holding" forever. I totally removed NoScript and now all print jobs are "processing" forever.
However, I'm still unable to print anything from any place, pdf, open office, anything.

It sounds like it's not NoScript related. Try Standard Diagnostic?
