"the print and headings when opening foxfire" Are you talking about the Menu Bar (File, Edit, View, History, etc.) and Toolbars? The following add-on will change that font size and other fonts on the Firefox interface. Theme Font Size Changer: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/162063/

Or are you talking about the web site display below the tabs?
