Wtf! It never crossed my mind that that "Print" might be different from the "Print" in the File menu, or the "Print" triggered by "Ctrl-P". Why?!

  I honestly think that UI was pulled from microsoft word/office. It's been about a decade since I've used microsoft products so I'm willing to be wrong, but my understanding was that the print button was a shortcut to print document now, and the file print would take you to a print dialog

    That's exactly right. Ctrl+P or clicking the button in the toolbar has always been a "quick print" dialog, while going File->Print brings up all the options. I remember some applications skipping the dialog altogether on the second click and using the settings from your last print session.

      But that's not what Firefox does! Ctrl-P: quick print File -> Print: Same quick print Hamburger -> Print: Print with preview!

        Maybe it's OS dependent? On my Mac all 3 of those do the same thing

          Maybe. I'm using Firefox Developer Edition 65.0b12 (64-bit) on Debian.
