Could you have a sample page?
I can not remember that something like that would have happened to me.

This is a totally different issue. The ON-printer creates an image.
Importing things from a website works with the clipboard (just Copy &
Paste).

None that I would know of.
It might possibly be a problem with the size of RAM available for the
clipboard.
As a workaround you might just mark parts of the page to reduce the
"weight" of what is sent.
