Print Dialogue still not resetting to the original System print dialogue after print.tab_modal dialog is set to false. All the fixes say alter the print.tab_modal dialog to false to set the original system print dialogue as the default but it doesn't work when I do that, anyone got any ideas on how to get rid of this horrible new print dialogue. This new print dialogue is rubbish, it doesn't have the features I need and even some of the ones it does have require an extra click compared to the original system print. I need to be able to alter print quality on a page by page frequency. I need to be able to choose page numbers in an instant, not have to choose between odds, evens and custom then define which. I have tried using this "new" default print dialogue and it doesn't even scale correctly but the real time waster is having to click the link to get back to the original system print dialogue. Why would someone override a perfectly good system for one with less features whilst also making the ones it does have more clunky to use.

In Firefox 97 the code for the previous modal print window has been removed and print.tab_modal.enabled no longer has effect and you can no longer revert to the modal dialog and only the new in page print interface is available. You can click the trashcan at the far right of this pref line to remove this pref.

I really do not want to change browsers. Firefox works great for most all my needs, but I am busy and need to get work done. This scrolling down to select "use system dialog" is costing me a lot of time.

Please re-enable the old print.tab_modal setting pr give me some way to just have the system print dialog enabled.

I'm running Version 98.0 and the specific OS Windows 10 pro for Workstations.
