    Can not print a pdf file


    I am having this problem with both laptops, one an HP and the other a Lenovo. I can open the pdf file but when I click print nothing happens, I get no response from the HP printer which I have not had any problems with.
    I would include the Windows version number but do not know where to find it.

    :)

    Printing a pdf file

    Hi,



    Thank you for contacting Microsoft community.

    • Which browser are you using to print using pdf option?
    I suggest you to try with different browsers and go to the option “print with PDF”
    and then try to print and check if the issue persist. This will determine us whether the issue with browsers or printer.

    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.
