Print as Image can help with various issues when printing a PDF. Once you have printed as image a single time on a specific printer Adobe Acrobat Reader will remember that setting for that specific printer. PDF Creator is one that it is ideal to set print as image on.
Instructions
1. Open a PDF.
2. Once open, press CTRL+P to print or, in the top left, click File > Print.
3. This will give you the option to change your printer. Please change it to PDF Creator, then click the Advanced button.
4. Check the box for Print As Image, then click OK
5. Click Print (the print job can be immediately canceled but must be clicked to remember the setting).
IMPORTANT: Until all Adobe Acrobat instances are closed and re-opened, it will remember the printer you chose here instead of your default.
