Using "Print using system dialogue" as default in Firefox
I'd like Firefox to automatically use the "Print using the system dialogue" setting:

![Screenshot of the Firefox print dialogue](https://powerusers.codidact.com/uploads/hugYYV2P2zqcEADkBD6S56Qb)

In older versions, I could use 

   
```
print.tab_modal.enabled = false 
```

in `about:config` to automatically get the normal system print dialogue, but this options no longer works in Firefox 97.
