@cmf41013 Contributions are welcome. If you're in a hurry I suggest you debug the issue yourself.

Print and Print to PDF work for me using cef_binary_128.4.12+g1d7a1f9+chromium-128.0.6613.138_windows64_client (both Chrome style and Alloy style). You need to add the --disable-features=PrintCompositorLPAC command-line flag (see issue #3725).

Unfortunately disabling PrintCompositorLPAC does not fix offscreen printing to PDF which still hangs #3768 (comment).

Thanks, It works
