We log all print activity in our company and it would be helpful to be able to identify print jobs from Firefox, however as only a web page's <TITLE> content is used as the print job name, I was wondering if there was a way to either use the URL as the print job name, or even prefix the print job name as "Mozilla Firefox" to identify jobs from this application?

In FF: File > Page Set Up... > Margins & Header/Footer > choose your options

Note the "Custom..." option in the drop-down fields! so you can manually type in your "Mozilla Firefox" option. :)

Thank you for your reply but that's the print job content, i.e. page header / footer will have the URL typed into it. I'm after the name of the print job, i.e. as it appears in the print queue. For that I cannot find an option. I'm wondering whether a plug-in could do this, replace the normal print function with an identical one that uses the URL as the print job name.
