Trying to print an email causes hard loop
I am using Thunderbird 115.15.0 (64-bit) on openSUSE Thundebird. This is the KDE version. I have verified that it fails with both the Wayland and X11 versions.
Why I try to print an email, the Print Dialog appears with the circular animation and the message "Preparing Preview." It then hangs in a loop. The only way to stop it is to use the System Monitor to Kill Thunderbird.
This is a serious problem as there are emails that need to be printed and there is no convenient way to print them otherwise.

That did fix the problem!
As you know the display is not as nice, but it works.
Thank you for your help.
