How to change printing options

Hello, I'm running Matlab R2018b on Ubuntu 18.04. I'm trying to print a figure to file with pdf extension by using the print command (see code below).

x=linspace(0,2*pi,1e2);
y=sin(x);

figure
plot(x,y)
print('figure.pdf','-fillpage')

Anyway, the file is sent to the default printer and not saved to file. I've looked around for the right option to set to change default printing options but I had no success; can anyone help finding the correct way to do that? I know I can use the saveas command instead, but I need to use the -fillpage option that is only available with print.

print(gcf,'figure.pdf','-fillpage')

That did not work. I actually solved by using

print('figure','-dpdf','-fillpage')

Thank you anyway!
