In Firefox 57 the print dialog does not show the same default settings as Windows 10 has. My printer does duplex printing, which is the default properties setting in Windows. But the Firefox print dialog shows only manual duplex printing. How do I fix this?

Fixed. Googling the problem with the printer model led to a solution. The problem was the page size, which was not set in the Firefox dialog. Setting it to A4 restored auto duplex printing. Thank you.
