Cage Card Printing with Chrome version 33+

During a recent update to Chrome, Google introduced a built-in PDF viewer.  Unfortunately, this does not have the control needed to properly print cage cards.  There is a simple procedure to restore the previous behavior using Adobe Reader:

In the Chrome address bar, type chrome://plugins
