  1. Windows Randomly Printing


    So i was writing some javascript using node.js the other night and i made a bat file to run the code easier, and in between 2 saves (i wrote it saved the bat file then added one more thing a bit later) it printed. i wasnt given any notificion something had printed or any print options or anything like that it just printed to my printer. I didnt even know until the next day my brother told me it printed and sure enough it was the bat file i was typing. Ive looked online and havent found anyone with a similar issue and it hasent happened again, and to my knowledge hasnt happened before. does anyone know what could have happened, or if im at some risk of security i dont have an ativirus i dont download many things. Thanks for any help u can give me.

    :)

    Hi,

    Thank you for the update and apologies for late response.

    • Click Print as PDF button.

    • Check if the document prints as expected.
    If the above steps did not work, try the next methods.

    Method 2: Set your printer as default.

      Control Panel
