Identifying the Control Settings:

   • "None": This setting prints the PDF without any annotations or form fields.
   • "Form Fields Only": Selecting this option will print only the form fields within the document.
   • "Document and Markups": If you want to print the entire document along with any annotations or markups, this setting would be suitable.
3. After selecting the desired setting, proceed with the printing process by clicking on the Print button.

Verifying Output:
