How to set to "print with system dialog" ... only

I've seen the other support requests on this from the past. Setting " print.tab_modal.enabled = false " doesn't seem to work now (Firefox for Mac 141.0.3).

Is there any (2025) way to default to "print with system dialog" rather than having to choose the link off of FF's dialog every time? It makes printing to PDF (which is 95% of my "printing" from FF) needlessly tedious.

Not this one. Try to switch print.prefer_system_dialog to true.

Thanks for this, and sorry for the long delay! I've been traveling a lot, and had used this tip to fix Firefox on my laptop; then I moved and had to set up a new desktop and new FF install, and had to seek out my own question to see how I dealt with it the first time! :D
