    Default Help! Computer saving pages as pdfs instead of printing

    This is on my work computer, and it's driving me crazy. Many times when I go to print, it wants me to save the web page as a pdf. I then have to open the pdf on my desktop to print the web page. It's driving me batty.

    Anyone know how to turn that off?

    Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.

    12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.

    League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.

    Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.

    We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.

    Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko

    are you using Chrome?

    when you press print i'm assuming the print dialog comes up. there should be a change destination button, click and and select your printer from the list.
