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?

    You no longer need a workaround, the fix is released. Just update Edge, three dots, Help and feedback, About Microsoft Edge.

    It should then download the update and ask you to restart Edge.

    Just updated to Version 120.0.2210.77 (Official build) (64-bit). Save as pdf works like it should.

    That's true, but not the type/form of PDF file that I need for my purposes.

    Incidentally, I just discovered that the problem also exists in the current version of Microsoft Edge Canary.

    Additionally, I have also discovered that in addition to Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox also saves web pages to the type of PDF file that I need.

    I continue to hope that Microsoft will soon provide a fix for the problem.

    Same issue here - Microsoft Print to PDF doesn't create an OCR searchable document but an image only that doesn't recognize text.
