Print selection option broken?
Printing from the new default print preview button causes option to print selection to be greyed out.
This issue seems to have persisted for a number of years and still isn't fixed?
What workaround is available for elderly relatives who are not familiar with keyboard shortcuts?
Is there any way to add the standard print dialogue to a toolbar button?
Even with an addon or bookmarklet or something at the very least?

Thanks, I noticed that addon but the review was rather sketchy and I would rather not risk the stability of their system with it, as troubleshooting at their age is extremely difficult.
I have just added a simple bookmarklet with the javascript:window.print() function with the text 'Print' for them, and removed the other print button from the toolbar.
Not ideal, and will take some time for them to get used to, but I guess it will have to suffice until this gets fixed.
It absolutely blows my mind that its persisted for so long without being resolved though.
