How to remove multiple tabs from HP Smart Web Printing on Firefox
Dang man! You just updated your HP Smart Web Printing software...now its tabs are taking over the whole browser window!
I had the same problem and kept using my Firefox internet browser like this for a few months until I got tired of clicking on View and disabling the Navigation Toolbar just so I could get a fuller view of the web pages I was surfing. It becomes a hassle if you want to scroll back/forth thru pages or type in a specific URL.
The HP support forum did not have an answer for this problem. The forums were inhabited by people complaining HP is way behind Firefox's technology and others saying the opposite. In my opinion Firefox company people are probably smarter(definitely cooler) than the Hp Smart web printing peeps...Sorry HP. I like HP; After my Commodore64 I had a Packard Bell...oh wait...that's right its not the same company.
