I'm currently working on a Java program that generates HTML and then sends it to the printer. The program is running on Windows and so I need to use the IE print engine to print:

Code:

C:>RUNDLL32.EXE MSHTML.DLL,PrintHTML file.html

My problem is that the printout looks different when I print from Firefox. I was wondering if there's a way to get Firefox to print the HTML from the CLI, something like "firefox --print file.html". That way, I'd be able to avoid using IE and my program would really be cross-platform.
