1748095 - Silent printing to a file fails on Windows with NS_ERROR_GFX_PRINTER_NAME_NOT_FOUND

Status: NEW

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Watt [:jwatt]]

Silent printing to a file fails on Windows with error NS_ERROR_GFX_PRINTER_NAME_NOT_FOUND. That's been the case since at least Firefox 95. Presumably our silent print users print to physical printers since I haven't seen any other reports of this, but it would still be good to fix for consistency with macOS/Linux where this works.

By "to a file" do you specifically mean the built-in Save to PDF destination, or does this also apply to other drivers if they are configured to use a file destination?
