Why not just export as png then let the os print it.

  Why not use a different software suite altogether? I love the classic response here: - This FOSS is missing a critical feature X - You should do Y instead, and you are incorrect for wanting to use X in the first place! For anyone wondering, literally every other graphics software has a print feature, from MSPaint to (yes) GIMP and Inkscape.

    "Critical feature" but with an "Easy workaround"? Doesn't seem likely.

    I think the Unix philosophy which many of us strive to do would have key pieces of software do as few of things as possible, so divesting from print allows other applications to do that better.

    > Why not use a different software suite altogether? If having a print button and a janky pre-print dialog box is worth 200$/year to you then by all means, move your entire workflow to Adobe. Or better yet - put those 200$ on a bug bounty to implement it - I'm sure somebody would jump on it. > I love the classic response here: This is the exact same response as you'd get from Adobe if you requested a feature from them. If a request doesn't carry a direct profit incentive for a company, they will completely ignore it - and if you worked a lot with Adobe software you would be very familiar with that. Yet somehow, people get more mad when small FOSS dev teams don't jump on their pet peeves immediately than when multi-million-dollar companies that they pay hundreds of $ ignore years of pleading by even rather large players in the industry to implement some pretty basic things. It's free software, not free dev time.
