My email wants to use a secondary printer to print instead of my default printer.

Do you see this type of 'dialog box' when using that Print Page button?

If so, select a different Printer before printing.

If not, your webmail provider software is by-passing that dialog box and "print" is going directly to the printer that you used the last time in Firefox - at least that's my guess.

And if that is the case, print something else thru Firefox first - changing the printer in that "dialog box" so that Firefox will then have that printer saved internally as the "last used". Firefox "remembers" the "last used" settings which are the "new default" to be used in Firefox.

yes i see that but the page or pages are formatted in the label format. So when I select the printer it prints from the label format.

Mozilla firefox

Within Firefox, use { Ctrl + P } from the keyboard, then select the 2nd printer and print something - anything at all. Should make that printer the new default.

Then go to your Yahoo!Mail and see if that 2nd printer is being used.

If not, reset all the printer preferences as described here. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-printing-problems-firefox#w_reset-all-firefox-printer-settings
