Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Toolkit :: Printing, defect)

Attachment: print_dialog_box_issue.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1
Build ID: 20120713134347

Steps to reproduce:

"File > Print" or "CTRL-P"


Actual results:

It brings up a print dialog box that seems like it's from and older version of Windows. It truncates longer server-based printer paths/names so that you don't know which printer is which. This seems to happen in all versions of FireFox (and Adobe v9.x products).


Expected results:

See attachment for comparison, but newer print dialog boxes (newer .DLL file?) let you horizontally scroll and change the icons so you can see longer printer paths/names. IN Win7 apps such as NotePad; IE; Adobe v10 products, etc seem to work fine.
Just asking to have this old print dialog box replaced or use newer interface. thanks...
