How can I print to Google Drive from Firefox? There's no entry for it in my Print dialog.

Once I select Print for a document, I expect as in Chrome to be able to select Google Drive as a destination in the Print dialog. It's not there. Is there something simple I'm missing here? I'm signed into Drive, so I don't know what else I can do to make it visible to Firefox. Since I use Google Docs for all of my document creation and manipulation, this is a major block.

Ed, thanks for your help. I had already tried the Google Shortcuts addon and it didn't really fill the bill, but now I'm going to experiment with the GDrive Panel. I think I can make that do what I need, though it's still a clunky workaround compared to the 1-2-3 process in Chrome. My hope is that someone will come up with an addon that emulates the Chrome process point-for-point, but until then I think this will work. Good day to you!

Try installing this, but be aware, it does allow you to print to google drive from anywhere, but you must install it from inside Google Chrome(at least it didn't work from inside Firefox in x64 41b3), which means that you may need to keep Google Chrome installed also.

But it works as easier as in Chrome.

But anyway, I hope this is implemented in a Firefox Option or addon to allow to print to the cloud in any of the most common cloud providers like gdrive, onedrive, ... Maybe with the migration that will allow Firefox to have Chrome addons to be installed this will be fixed.
