I have a problem with printing from the latest version of Microsoft Edge. When I select some text on the browser and choose Print → 'Save As Pdf', the download starts but never finishes. How can I fix this? Is this a common issue for all the users of the latest version of Edge?

I have tried restating the PC, Resetting the browser, stopping all the extension etc. to fix it. but it doesn't work? Should I switch to Chrome?

    Yes, I'm afraid this is behaving similar to print as PDF.

    Has anybody noticed similar behaviour when downloading PDF files aswell?

    They download to 100% but never finishes, leaves a temp file in the downloads folder.

    Exactly the same issue. Version 120.0.2210.61 (Official build) (arm64). Also on 2 x Windows Machines (10 and 11) and on Linux Mint with MS Edge installed.

    The workaround I have found is to "Print to" Rather than "Save as". But needs a fix.

    Worked OK on 119.0.2151.97 (Official build) (64-bit). But updating on that machine failed as well.
