Kangie suggested that I post a bug here to see if we can get Gentoo's falkon patched to reflect the new fix posted on kde bugs (linked in URL). When printing to a CUPS printer, Falkon's print dialog box closes and no jobs are sent to CUPS. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select Print (to a CUPS printer not a file) Actual Results: Dialog box closes. No jobs are submitted to CUPS. Expected Results: The page should print. This has been patched by upstream now. Hoping to get gentoo's Falkon updated.
Fixed upstream in: https://invent.kde.org/network/falkon/-/commit/cbf47b0625c9b67b3608e24600273693bd59462a
The upstream patch fixed the printing issue. Tested using available hardware printer. Applied the upstream patch on the currently available www-client/falkon-24.08.03 portage version. Falkon sends the print job to CUPS and files are printed.
