I will try to open a bug report. The printer I have is the HP Deskjet F2430 All-in-One Printer http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=3964426&lc=en&cc=sg&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=sg
It comes with the software I mentioned before. I did a default installation. I had firebug already installed and working before I installed the HP Smart Web Printing plug-in. Then I noticed the problem. The firebug icon was greyed out and the Menu item (Tools->Firebug) didn't expand, the firebug console didn't show after I clicked the icon. -Christopher On Thu, Dec 31, 2009 at 3:37 PM, Jen Baldwin <[email protected]> wrote: > Unfortunately this article was never about HP Smart Web Printing but > about an academic project to create a different product called > PrintMonkey.
