Under what SPECIFIC feature (in e.g. Firefox and Chrome) is this automatic obfuscation implemented when printing a PDF? And how to remove it from the file?

My only conclusion is is that some banks use some feature built in PDF Readers to prevent the printing of a PDF, by covering parts with black bars.

The issue does not appear when using other software like Adobe Reader or Microsoft Edge, to print the PDF.

Is this a form of DRM? I want to know how it works whatever is causing it, and be able to remove it from the PDF itself completely.

Why does Firefox obey this DRM crap, while Edge has the balls to ignore it?
