Description

Making others aware of this incase they encounter the same issue I have had all week.

I have been trying to print a PDF using fetch and converting to blob to print the PDF via a button. All the seperate pieces of code worked and I have been searching for answers that I kind of knew I was not going to get. There were no errors being thrown either, so I had nothing to work with. I saw someone suggest changing the latest version of printJS to **1.4.0** and it worked.

So this must be a bug somewhere and letting others know of the issue

Research direction

Start by reproducing PDF printing through printJS with a fetch-to-blob flow and compare the current release with version 1.4.0, which the report says works. Check whether the latest version fails silently when printing from the button; done means identifying the regression and confirming a working print path with a focused reproduction.
