Do not identify print window as per image
When we print a page, its print preview comes first. To identify that print preview window, the option given below is done, but if you do not want this, then you can turn on that option.
Set Image Path to Identify Print Window
To identify the print preview window, we have to save an image of that print preview window in the PC and give the path of that image in this option. Due to the size of the page, the print window opens quite late, hence this option is used so that the extension waits until the image is visible on the screen.
