Re: [LUG] Firefox Printing to file

 



I have found all the entries for mozilla.ps with the filter but changing the one for print.print_to_filename does not get me my breadorder.ps
it was quirky first  it went  to output.pdf then back to mozilla.ps

?

Firefox about:config gives me several entries with "/home/srw/mozilla.ps"

print.printer_CUPS/Virtual_Printer.print_to_filename
print.printer_CUPS/HP-PSC-1400.print_to_filename

One can also tweak the print command, so if all else fails a simple
wrapper script could print out it's arguments and then call lpr as per
the config settings. Then you could change it to mangle the settings as
you want them.

i.e. Tweak the config entries with "printer_command" to use something
other than:

lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+-P"$MOZ_PRINTER_NAME"}
