PDF printing pop up even with printing turned off

I'm not sure if someone on another shift has possible turned something on but when I came in today, everytime I execute a feature using ctrl U/Q at the end I get the printing prompt below. Printing is turned off under File>Printing>Report Window Print Setup. We typically just produce .rtf and .dmo and rarely use pdf. Any idea how I can turn this off? 2022R1 is what we're using if that matters.

  • Did you check the registry setting mentioned above for permissions?

    The Concatenate on the dialog indicates it is an Amyuni dialog being displayed. There is a registry setting that needs permissions.
    Search for Amyuni to find it as I can’t remember it.


    For future reference the registry setting is H_KEY_CURRENT_CONFIG/SOFTWARE/PCDMIS 50 CONVERTER the logged in PC user needs to have full access rights to this registry setting to allow print commands to work in Windows10​

    1. you cannot (or should not try to print directly to the PCDMIS Converter or Amyuni as a printer. Amyuni is for PDF/RTF output and pcdmis must provide a license to print to it.
    2. The Report Output dialog above is used to manually print the report to an output type. Again, pcdmis will internally use Amyuni for file PDF/RTF output.
    3. The output is generated at end of execution based on either a PRINT command or File/Printing/Report Window Print Setup. Selecting Report output for file output (upper portion of the dialog) controls what file type is generated. I'm assuming you have NOT selected Printer.
    4. Once execution is complete pcdmis looks at the output type selected and tries to output to your selected type using the Amyuni Print Driver. The driver is attempting to change the above mentioned registry setting but is unable to and displays the Amyuni dialog which you have attached in your first comment (the one which contains Concatenate).
    5. If you correct the registry setting permissions is there still an issue?
