On our servers w e do not use CUPS, still LPD. How to configure Firefox/Mozilla using LPD instead of CUPS? How to avoid this blind preconfiguration being used via the ports collection?


In the Mozilla Print menu, select Print To: Printer, Printer: Postscript/Default. Then in Properties enter your print command. For my lpd setup with a queue called "laser", I use:

lpr -Plaser

Thanks,
but it isn't necessary changing the printing command. MOZ_PRINTER_NAME is unset in the default config and printing without an explicitely named printer should always target 'lp', if set. Our printer setup runs now for several years without problems - without CUPS. The problem seems to a null-set

print.printer_list

Seting this string to "lp some-other-lp-name" solves the problem, firefox/mozilla prints via lpd as expected and not connecting a mutual cups service as recognized.
