Did you even try this before posting? These steps are no different than just right-clicking the image and choosing "Save image as". It still results in a download that never finishes.
Inspect > Copy > Image Data-URL works perfectly fine in Firefox.
Did you even read the page? There's no reason to think that this approach would work.
What actually works: take a snapshot of the element via the Elements panel.
