I can reproduce this symptom on ALL platforms with ALL Firefox builds. This is not a regression caused by our feature.
Stefan, could you confirm?

I looked into this a little bit.

Google Drive hook the keyboard event (If the user pushes the ctrl + p, Google Drive will open this document as PDF), then a script will call the window.print(). Gecko will try to print this PDF as well due to ctrl + p. However, this document doesn't load yet. So gecko will display the alert dialog.

In any case, this is no longer block to the bug 1399787.
