I'm using FF2 and I get the options I've always got, open with Foxit or save to disk. The annoying thing about the Canon site is when I go to click on a model and another model's picture pops under my mouse at that moment taking me to the other model's page.
If Canon is making some browsers print so we have to buy more Canon ink, it's a strange strategy which I can't imagine working. They'll also upset their fan base who know models are here today gone tomorrow and download every free model we find. On Jun 12, 12:06 am, cat <[email protected]> wrote: > Michael G.
