The last time I used MLS, it did not differentiate. After I used the Print to PDF option, I always had to remember to print the last item again on paper, or the financial clerk would have problems on Sunday with the deposit and checks.

But it should be very easy to tell if this is happening. When MLS prints to PDF, the normal popup appears asking for a file name, and if you know what to do, you are able to back out and print to the regular printer instead.

So I checked the print setting on MLS before reinstalling and it was set to the physical printer.

So In case anyone has the same issue, just reinstall MLS on top of the current version. It worked for me after doing that.
