Hey there. From what I can find, it doesn't look doable through Javascript; the most useful discussion I found is from way back on Stack Overflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/230205/how-can-print-preview-be-called-from-javascript.

The only way I can find to invoke or call the print preview in Firefox is through add-ons with "PrintUtils.printPreview(PrintPreviewListener);", source: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/948326.
