These are shown as set to the default settings..

    print.postscript.print_command;lpr
    ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+-P"$MOZ_PRINTER_NAME"}

    print.print_command;lpr ${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+-P"$MOZ_PRINTER_NAME"}

I would assume that "-P"$MOZ_PRINTER_NAME"" is what forces the default 
printer but I have no idea how to change that?

It's not a killer of a problem and I can live with it but it just struck 
me as not being right! At first I thought I had another LAN problem. It 
only affects Flash in Firefox and the only thing I use flash for is a 
few crossword puzzles that I and other family members work every day. 
I've got them hooked too!

Thanks for the response.

Bob
