Works fine here.

The line from debugview is very helpful, that seems to be where the printing is canceled - though figuring out why it's not happy doesn't seem trivial.

Does printing work for you with a gpg4win-4.4 or something like that?

Same on gpg4win-4.4.1 @ win11 (here a bit more debugview context)

It's also the same error in Okular, when a pdf is printed.

Ok, it was a missing update (although windows claimed to be up-to-date).
After installing 2025-06 [...] KB5060829 the Microsoft Print to PDF feature is available again and printing also works in Kleopatra/Okular.
