Details
(Keywords: regression, Whiteboard: [works in new printing UI, broken in old UI])
opening up a site like https://www.recipegirl.com/irish-soda-bread-muffins/ and clicking print(on the page not through the normal menu or cmd-p) will open up a new page that is immediately commanded to print. the print dialog box is initiated before the page either has a title or the internal mechanism to set the attribute that was fixed by bug 1606512 wasn't set yet. if you exit out of the print dialog and initiate another print it works as expected.

so it turns out it's not a timing issue and it occurs anytime the webpage itself tries to print or you press the print button on the page. for instance this page doesn't print automatically when you press the print button but when you press the print button on the opened page it will still have untitled in the filename but when you do cmd-p it's the correct filename.
This seems to affect me the most when I'm print-to-PDF'ing Order Confirmations from Amazon.com or a few other email retailers.

Because this bug's Severity has not been changed from the default since it was filed, and it's Priority is P3 (Backlog,) indicating it has been triaged, the bug's Severity is being updated to S3 (normal.)

Can you file a new bug for that and CC me? This bug is specifically about window.print() being called in webpages. For your issue it sounds like Thunderbird needs something along the lines of the Firefox patch in bug 1664332.

You can still open up the system UI from firefox's UI. It does seem resolved now though.
