As someone who always used the Ctrl-P keyboard shortcut, I never even knew that a print-with-preview interface existed in Firefox.

It never even occured to me to use the menu version. What an upgrade
you guys made me read the menu shortcuts .. didn't know reader mode and all-tabs had them (in order CTRL-ALT-R and CTRL-SHIFT-TAB)
May I blow your mind? ;)
Ctrl-1 to Ctrl-8 accesses the first eight tabs directly, Ctrl-9 jumps to the last tab. Enjoy!
I didn't know about the Ctrl-9. Thanks.
I think you meant Alt-N and yeah I did know (don't even know how but I use it every day since forever..)

Try Tridactyl. You can access any tab directly with `b`.
I'm on Firefox 84, pressing file/print or ctrl-p brings up a preview window on the left, printer selection on the right.
The new print interface has been progressively released to a subset of users over multiple releases. It's only gone to 100% of users as of Firefox 86.
I guess I was in the early rollout. I was in the middle of designing a print layout about a month or two ago when firefox got updated. After a restart I suddenly was missing the print preview option in the menu to test my design. I was really glad to see that I could from now on just press Ctrl + P and get a much better experience.
