When I try to print a >pdf file, it asks me to save it first. I save the file to my desktop, but when I go to print it, it still won't print. What am I doing wrong. I never had this problem before.

Do you print to a printer, or to a file?

In the Print dialog box, beside Printer: does it actually show an existing printer?

Yes it does. Everything I need to print, prints fine except a pdf. I have
to save it first and then when I open it to print it says it can't print
because it's a .prn .

a prn is the extension of a print-to-file type.
what file extension does the file have when you look at it in a file browser?

you don't need to open it. just look at the file name.

It says it is a pdf file but when saved on my desktop it shows that it is
a prn. When I double click the pdf it says that adobe cannot open the file
"creamale.prn" because the file is either not a supported file type or
because the file has been damaged.

rename it to a pdf file.
attach a screenshot of your print window showing the printer you are selecting.
