FoxIt removed the PDF Printer Driver from the free version when they updated
to Version 10. I remember being angry about it when it happened on an
automatic update and reverting to version 9.x to get it back. I have been
refusing all updates since then. There were a lot of people unhappy when
that happened, but I didn't keep up with it after that. 

Did they put the PDF Printer driver back into the free version?

Free Foxit PDF reader installs a PDFprinter by default. PDFprinter has a 
couple of properties than can be set in Settings > Printers.
