There may be some issues printing PDF's from the new computers that are being distributed this summer.
Please try the following:
Search for Default App Settings - Look under Web Browser - If Microsoft Edge is listed you should change that to another browser. Once you select the preferred browser, you should be prompted with a check box that will ask you if you want to always use this browser to print PDF's. You should check that box and then try to print the PDF again.
