Windows print dialog does it right

I wanted to print a document, and the application (Firefox) remembered that last time I printed to PDF.  It kindly set that as my default for the next print, which I enjoy most of the time, but I wanted my default printer.  Since it’s a networked printer, it is an ugly corporate-conrolled name and I can’t rename it or type the first letter… so I [unthinkingly] pressed the HOME key.

It worked.

Now that is the way applications should work – just behave correctly so unthinking keystrokes work.  It seems like a small thing but it makes the user so much more efficient.
