Let $\Irr(W)$ be the set of irreducible representations of a finite Weyl group $W$. Following an idea from Spaltenstein, Geck has recently introduced a preorder $\leq_L$ on $\Irr(W)$ in connection with the notion of Lusztig families. In a later paper with Iancu, they have shown that in type $B$ (in the asymptotic case and in the equal parameter case) this order coincides with the order on Lusztig symbols as defined by Geck and the second author in \cite{GJ}. In this paper, we show that this caracterisation extends to the so-called integer case, that is when the ratio of the parameters is an integer.
