Firefox autoprints Microsoft Word and Excel documents despite setting otherwise.

about:config print.always_print_silent is now set to false. (was somehow set to true). After I set to false and reboot, same behavior occurs. I verified that same behavior does not occur in other browser.

Note: I noticed that on Settings > General > Applications> Content type, it seems to acknowledge .doc for Microsoft Word, but not .docx For "What should Firefox do with other files?" I set "Ask"

Using Windows 8.1 32 bit.
