Firefox 99 os/system print dialog

Hi, how do we set Firefox 99 to use the os/system print dialog?

We are using Linux.

In Firefox 97/98 we could change these settings in about:config: widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker = 1 widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.mime-handler = 1 widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.print = 1 widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.settings = 1

Then we could get the os/system print dialog by clicking the "Print using the system dialog..." in the Firefox print preview.

In Firefox 99, widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.print is gone. No matter what we set the other widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.* keys to, we can only get the Firefox print dialog, when clicking the "Print using the system dialog..." in the Firefox print preview. We do not get the os/system print dialog.

So, how is that done now?

Thanks for your time :o)
