129397 - Print progress dialog should never be shown on OS X

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

[David Hyatt]

When you print in OS X, the OS automatically shows a print progress 
dialog.  We should never show a print progress dialog on OS X.

The problem right now is that two dialogs are being shown, which looks 
terrible (the XUL and the native OS one both show up on top of one 
another).

It can be turned off with a pref. I don't see that we yet have a MAC OSX
specific pref file in modules. The pref is:

Currently all.js defines this and I don't think anyone (except the embedding
app) overrides this:
pref("print.show_print_progress", true);

So either an OSX pref file needs to be created (preferable) or it could be done
programitcally. I am going to reassign this back to you sense the pref solution
exists and it would be easier for you to do this than me (I don't have a Mac)

Only the OS X native print progress dialog appears. Tested with the March 18th
(2002-03-18-08) build.
