When trying to print directly from the browser for a PDF the following pop-up shows:User's image

This is causing confusion with people trying to print.

Is there a way to remove Universal Print entirely from the SharePoint site to get rid of this pop-up?

Or is there a way to set the default printing option when viewing from the browser?

    Hi @Crosby, Kyle ,

    I found a thread with you with the same problem as yours and the solution mentioned in it was: remove the "Universal Print" app from the licence to all users.
