Preview printing automatically without stopping at dialog box

In Montery 12.6 I want to print a PDF document that I opened in Preview. When I initiate a

file / print command from the drop down. Preview quickly displays the normal print dialog box

but goes right into printing the document without stopping at the print dialog box.

I have two printers (one a color) and want to select one of them and the number of copies and I do not get that option.

I am able to open a doc in Preview adjust color, size etc but can't specify destination or count?

I see others had this issue with older releases of OS software but I do not see a resolution for this OS.

Any help would be appreciated.

I discovered that I was looking at a quick look of an image with Preview in the window beneath. File print instantly prints the image in that view.
