How do I get Firefox to recognize my new default printer as the old default printer is no longer connected?

I have installed a new default printer in my computer which is running Windows XP Pro. When I try to print from the browser it keeps showing the old printer which is no longer connected to the computer. Every other program has recognized the new default printer. The Control Panel indicates that the new printer is the default.

You can force Firefox into forgetting the old printer.

  1. Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Locate the preference print.print_printer, right-click on it and choose Reset
  4. Restart Firefox
