When I select to print in Firefox it uses my copier printer not my default printer. So How do I change the default printer for Firefox?

In Firefox the "default" is the last used printer. If you change to a different printer, Firefox should remember that one as the new "default" - unless you turned off that setting in about:config . print.save_print_settings
