My windows default printer is an HP 2015, but when I print anything from Firefox it defaults to Adobe. Can I fix this?

When I try to print from Firefox, the Adobe PDF printer is pre-selected in the printer dialog box, even though my default windows printer is a laser jet.

Both printers work just fine, but changing printers every time is a nuisance.

This happens whenever I print anything on Firefox, including emails.

Sorry, Firefox doesn't use the Windows "default printer" as the default printer, but rather it uses the last used printer as the "default". That doesn't always happen when the printer involved goes into stand-by and is "offline", from what I have seen on my small LAN.

Just one of the hundreds of print related Bugs or nuisances in Firefox that I doubt will ever be fixed, until they write all new code for printing
