Firefox was probably compiled with XPrint support. The USE flag
"xprint" should do this. At least I think that XPrint configured a PDF
Printer by default. Another option would be to use CUPS and configure a
PDF printer there. It wouldn't matter in that case if Firefox has
Xprint support, but that would probably make switching printers easier,
too.

Print what you want in a file (Postscript) and convert it with ps2pdf
... I don't remember a version of firefox which allowed to print
directly in pdf...
