In the old mozilla browser I used to simply delete the command in the printer properties box and insert kprinter. It does mean a moment's delay, since you first change to the kprinter menu, then still have to start the print job, but I always considered that worth it for the advantages. As well as the advantages I remarked on to Rex, the link you gave applauded the printing of webpages to pdf. I would have thought that one or other of these methods would work with seamonkey. Anne
