    printing .fdf files not working


    I can print .fdf files from one internet site with no problem, but another site gives me an error message saying no supported printer connected. I've searched and can't find a solution that works. .fdf files are temporary pdf files that expire or allow only limited printing. the site that doesn't work has suggested answers to other print errors but not this one. The site requires using Adobe acrobat reader DC to print the files, I have uninstalled and reinstalled, run troubleshooter on the printer and laptop, changed adobe acrobat reader dc settings to enable javascript, contacted the si

    Occasionally "Microsoft print to pdf" creates empty files

    Have already done all of the steps suggested in that link.
    The problem only happens occasionally; maybe two or three times a day.
    Happening on several PC's, the only way to catch it before it goes to customers is the size of the file created.
    If it is 0 or 1kb, it's a blank document.
    Microsoft Print to pdf was working fine until about two weeks ago.
    Thank You

    The printer now is on ready mode
    I configure the hold to 60 minutes.
    After that I tried to print a small text but didn't work

    and today in the beginning of this problem until now didn't show that message.
