Description

Controls how Google Chrome prints on Microsoft® Windows®. When printing to a PostScript printer on Microsoft® Windows® different PostScript generation methods can affect printing performance. When this policy is set to Default, Google Chrome will use a set of default options when generating PostScript. For text in particular, text will always be rendered using Type 3 fonts. When this policy is set to Type42, Google Chrome will render text using Type 42 fonts if possible. This should increase printing speed for some PostScript printers. When this policy is not set, Google Chrome will be in Default mode.
