How about specifying an argument to that? Not sure if it would work, since mozilla also has a paper size option, which may or may not override your intentions. I also just pulled up about:config and found a few options which may be of interest: print.print.printer_PostScript/default.print_paper_width print.print.printer_PostScript/default.print_paper_height print.print.printer_PostScript/default.print_paper_name scrolling down a bit further, I found the default paper sizes under print.tmp.printerfeatures.Postscript/default.paper . So you could add an entry for tabloid by adding a new name, width, height, etc. and incrementing the "count" option. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "As we enjoy great advantages from inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously." --Benjamin Franklin
