I'm encountering the problem with TB, not FF.
I removed a bunch of "print_to_filename" preferences from prefs.js and that made the problem go away.
When I printed to a file after removing those preferences and then exited from TB, new "print_to_filename" preferences were not saved in prefs.js.
This suggests to me that these "print_to_filename" resources are obsolete. If so, then shouldn't part of this fix involve removing them, at least during a transition period? Otherwise, every user encountering this problem is going to have to use the advanced configuration editor or a text editor to remove them manually from prefs.js, which doesn't sound to me like something we want to be telling end users they need to do.
