print.print_command does not exist.
print.postscript.print_command = lpr
${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME}
print.printer_PostScript/default.print_command = lpr
${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME:+'-P'}${MOZ_PRINTER_NAME}
So that is correct. Then, I have:
print.print_printer = CUPS/tofile
which is the printer I want to have, but still when I try to print mozilla
(I mean, firefox) pops the print dialog with the previous printer
selected, and the one I want half way down the list.

I did that once, yes, but the choice in the dialog does not stick. And
that "PostScript/default" does not print to my system default printer as
defined in cups (it prints to tp0).
I could hack those to the name I want, but I don't like that. I will
forget the default string when I want to put it back and will have to ask
here again O:-)

Ah, yes... I have them at the default .14 inches. Should change that,
probably.
