How to turn off print preview using "print" option under menu. Using FF 86.
Just recently been getting a print preview pop-up from FF when selecting "print" under the menu. Must select system dialog to print the way I want. This is annoying. How to turn it off and use system dialog? Thanks.

Welcome to the new print experience that combines preview/setup/print on one panel. There's a link on the lower right part of the panel to print using the system dialog if you prefer:
There is a temporary preference to switch back to the classic design of separate preview/setup/print if you can't make the new one work for you:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste tab_mo and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the print.tab_modal.enabled preference to switch between the new experience (true) and the classic experience (false)
(4) If there is another preference named app.normandy.startupRolloutPrefs.print.tab_modal.enabled you can double-click that one to switch it to false as well. If you do not have that one, no need to create it.
Since you are setting to false, it will look roughly like this:
