Firefox 54 64bit: Cannot print from Adobe Flash>Possible bug

Post by SergeGardien »

Under Windows 8 (64bit), Firefox 54.0 32bit allows printing an Adobe Flash (ver.26.0.0.131) file by right-click (and selecting "print") meanwhile Firefox 64bit doesn't work (whenever I right-click and select "print" I hear a blip-sound and nothing happens). Internet Explorer has no issue instead.

Under Mac OS X 10.11.6 also I have no issues with Firefox 64bit (same Adobe Flash version).

This is also experienced by others:

Is this a Firefox 64bit bug (or Adobe Flash)?

Since FF 53 works (expected print dialog pops up), I'd say its a FF issue.

This, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1349974, works for me in FF 53 (didn't test FF 52), but fails in FF 54 - with only a 'beep'.

Thanks therube, that was my suspicion.
