Disable print preview in Chrome for Windows

Chrome has a built in Preview and their own printer dialog box that sometimes causes crashing.  If you were to RIGHT -CLICK your chrome shortcut and go to the PROPERTIES and click in the TARGET box you'll see something like C:\Users\%username%\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

Just make sure to hit space bar 2 times after the chrome.exe and then put in --disable-print-preview.  Then press OK.

That shortcut you just made will launch chrome and when you go to print you will now get the windows print dialog box.
