Relocating dialog/window to open in different location.
I use an online POS, and when I go to print a receipt, the dialog/window box pops up in front of the change to be given. I'd like to change the settings to cause the dialog/window box to open in the middle of the screen, or anywhere else of my liking, allowing me to see what is on the main window (the change amount).

Could you describe what is popping up in more detail. Specifically, is it a new window with a print-formatted document, and possibly the Print dialog in front of that, or just the Print dialog?
The reason I ask is that an add-on probably could move the window, but I suspect it couldn't move the Print dialog.
It would be helpful to know exactly which version of Firefox you are using.

In my scenario, when I make a sale in my POS, and complete the sale, I choose to print a receipt. It’s then that a window appears to allow me to choose a printer, and actuate the print job. It’s that print window that pops up in the way of my ‘change due’. Any location other than the top left of my screen would be better. I’d love to relocate to a particular place, but I’ll not be too choosy.
This is my window in the way of the change.
This would be a preferred possible location for the window to appear.
Hmm, is that recent? I think the Print dialog used to open in the center of the screen.
I can't think of any way to control that from within Firefox. Maybe someone else will have an idea about that or a Windows utility that can detect and move the window.
The Page Setup Print window location can be adjusted by modifying the xulstore.json file in your profile folder, but I'm not sure about the standard print dialog window.
I would assume that there is an equivalent option for that dialog window. Maybe not though, since I think the print dialog window is created by the Windows operating system itself, not Firefox.
I would think that my POS company software could control the determining settings for the print window. I say that because no other print window looks like it, or locates in that spot, unless it's windows that controls it, because it does look like a classic windows print window.
