Edge not printing PDF's Properly

[Harold Kober]

For PDF's with watermarks, Edge is printing the watermark in the foreground which totally obscures the content on the page

As there appears to be no printer settings available other then very basics like selecting a printer and page size it seems there is no way to fix this.

Work Around: downloaded and installed Adobe Reader DC and used IE which now prints the pdf properly ... before downloading and installing DC, any PDF's loaded in IE would open in Edge by default.

Kingston (now called WPS - and totally free!) does an amazing job with PDFs
It does everything that MSoffice does, and better,

I downloaded it and it's not free. It says I have a 30 day trial and need to pay after that. Eset also flagged parts of it as adware and spyware. I ended up uninstalling it through Revo Uninstaller. User beware.

For personal use it IS free. For more advanced features you need to subscribe. If you can work with the restrictions in the free version, then it is great. I use it to open PDFs and edit them. Also, if you wish to remove any advertising (There is a single popup when you start it), then you, again, subscribe.
I have used it for some years, without problems. Yes, as I said, there is a small, unobtrusive, ad. I am not aware, nor have I detected, any spyware over and above what MS Office also provides.

I am happy with Open Office. It's free and without any adware or spyware. You might want to read this.

Thankyou. Interesting, but I have no idea who innovative systems WPS_office_PC.exe is, or are. The company is certainly not anything associated with my installation, not does it use anything called NSIS installer.
Apache Open Office is a fine program.
Anyway, not really the subject of this thread. The OP appears to have solved his problem
