Love it because the add-on does exactly what I want. Wish I could set the shortcut to command-p but that's reserved.

Yes... unfortunately command-p is reserved... But you can set another shortcut on the page about:addons by clicking in the gear and "Manage Extension Shortcuts".

I'm thinking in modify the icon, feel free to open a new issue about that in https://github.com/jhonatasrm/print-preview/issues

Thank you for the review :)

    This feature seemed to not ever really work. I could however ope the applications menu and click print which would pull up the print preview screen. In the last few months I can not locate any possible way to print preview any page. Hundreds of unnecessary documents printer/wasted.

    I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, we had some updates on the browser that affected the add-on. Thank you very much for your honest review.

    In the current version of Firefox (v.95.0.2 - Jan. 2022), this extension does literally nothing (as far as I can tell). It has the exact same effect as using Ctrl+P or the browser's normal Print dialog. But it does give a context menu entry, so I guess that's something?

    Useless with the latest FF versions.
    It doesn't do anything different that Ctrl-P, or using the Print... function.
    Gone is the very useful "simplify page" functionality, which really needed to be improved not discarded.

    OMG, I'm buying you a coffee! Thank you for creating this helpful little add-on! Some of the windows I have to print come in the form of pop-ups (rubrics and such--I'm a teacher), and there is no FF menu bar for "print preview" in pop-up windows. I've lost count of the number of screenshots I've taken (and then finagled with) to get a decent printout.
    This adds a "print preview" to the right-click context menu as promised--and is SOOOO helpful!
    Thank you again,
    tlj

    Very easy to use. I love its feature "simplify page" which really makes all pages printable!

    I can't believe Firefox doesn't have their
    "print preview" feature built into the ctrl+p keyboard shortcut! Adding this print extension allows you to at least associate AN keyboard shortcut combination. I have a Logitech Craft keyboard and assigned the ctrl+shift+u shortcut to one of my lesser used keys for simplicity.

    This shortcut works well!

    The Print Preview context menu is exactly what I needed. I am surprised Firefox does not have this function built in like Chrome does. At first the save option was not working with Firefox version 67.0.1 but after I reported this issue he quickly corrected it. It is now working wonderfully. I recommend this to anyone who is wants to simplify print preview with fewer clicks.

    Works well, except the print preview icon/command keeps disappearing from the context menu. I can go into the extension's Options menu and turn on the command again (even though it still showed as "On"), but it only reappears for one use and then disappears again. Please fix this...it's otherwise a helpful extension.
