  settings = {"recentDestinations": [{"id": "Save as PDF", "origin": "local", "account": ""}], "selectedDestinationId": "Save as PDF", "version": 2}
  prefs = {'printing.print_preview_sticky_settings.appState': json.dumps(settings)}

  chrome_options.add_argument('--kiosk-printing')
  browser = webdriver.Chrome(r"chromedriver.exe", options=chrome_options)
  browser.get("https://google.com/")
  browser.execute_script('window.print();')
  browser.close()
