Removing Header & Footer from Firefox 3.6.1 Printing

Here are some instructions on how to remove the header and footer while printing from Firefox 3.6.1 on Ubuntu 10.04.

Type 'about:config' in the URL bar and hit Enter. You will see a warning about altering the browser configuration.


Acknowledge the warning and move on.

Filter using 'header.' Before modifying, you may want to take a screenshot of the existing values in case you want to add them back in the future. Alter the printing preferences associated with 'header' by right-clicking and selecting 'modify.' Remove the current values.


Repeat this process using 'footer.'

Now all printouts from within Firefox should be without the header and footer information.
