Re: [opensuse] Printing to PDF from Firefox - Something Broke

perhaps you have looked in the wrong place. The following appears to
solve your problem:

note: used to be that you had to set the firefox/netscrape print
command to "kprinter --stdin" and "kprinter" alone did not work as it
does not now.

user_pref("print.print_printer", "kprinter --stdin");

not tested :^)
