I just upgraded to Firefox 38. I've been avoiding it for a year because of the stupid UI changes that really pss me off.

I dislike Chrome and IE even more, so I'm figuring out how to get some things working like they did before.

Used to be, when I clicked on the Print button in the toolbar would bring up Print and I could click OK. Now it brings up Print Preview. It adds additional steps every single time and I don't like it. Most of the time I'm printing to PDF, so I don't need Print Preview.

How can I change the toolbar button to NOT use Print Preview?

Thanks

Look, their are many users who are upset with the Print button now opening Print Preview first instead opening the native print dialog box; there's is a Bug filed about it because it makes it more difficult to "print a selection", but until it is fixed - it is the way it is - broken.

I keep my right hand on the mouse and use my left hand (thumb and index finger) to do Ctrl + P with the right Ctrl key when I want to print without doing the Preview.

Don't use the Toolbar button. That was screwed up many versions ago.

Use {Ctrl + P} instead or install one of the many "Print" extensions that are available from AMO.

AMO search for "print"

Is use this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit/ And when I want to print, I right-click and select Print... > Print...

Thanks for your suggestions. I do this for a living and have been for over 25 years. I'm very familiar with <CTRL-P> and I've added the Context Add-on. There is still the matter of efficiency. It adds an extra click and mouse movement every time now that wasn't there before.

I should NOT have to take my hands off the mouse and move to the keyboard for something that used to work perfect.
