Description

I try window.print(); to print the whole content of monaco-editor but it print only the first page (visible with scoll page). I have try to remove scroll with:

@media print {
    .monaco-editor, .monaco-editor div { /*.editor-scrollable*/
        overflow: visible;
    }
}

but without success.. Can we write css for @media print and maybe it's better to include it in library?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with window.print() in the Monaco editor and inspect the .monaco-editor scroll containers under the provided @media print rules. The work is done when printing includes the editor's whole content across all pages without breaking normal scrolling or screen rendering.
