Problem with Chrome

Mark Lang Jun 28, 2012 06:25PM PDT

I just installed the browser tool in Chrome from the Chrome Extensions page. I have the icon, it shows up in extensions, and I can access the options page. However, when I click on the icon, it blinks briefly but nothing else happens. No print preview page or similar screen appears. What am I missing? Thanks.

Hi, Can you tell us if you were having this issue on every page you try, or is this problem related to some specific sites/pages?

I'm also having this issue. The icon is there, reacts when clicked but doesn't produce a print/PDF window. I'm running Chrome 21.0.1180.77 m on Windows 7. Doesn't appear to work on any pages.

Make sure you’ve got the official PrintFriendly & PDF extension. There are a couple of knock-offs out there…

Ah, I found the problem: it's Fanboy's Annoyance List in the Adblock Plus extension. Disabling that makes Print Friendly work.

I'm also having this problem with Chrome v21 on Windows 7. Adding Print Friendly to the exceptions for the popup blocker, JavaScript, and Plugins did not help. I tried adding both the domain "printfriendly.com" and the extension name "chrome-extension://ohlencieiipommannpdfcmfdpjjmeolj" but to no avail.
