If I uncheck «Use Skia for all rendering» under Preferences->LibreOfficeDev->View, I can print.

Also for LibreOffice.

Alex: thought you might be interested in this one since it concerns MacOs. If you have some time to confirm the bug it would be great!

I checked out the same commit from the bibisect repo as Alex in comment 3, but I can see the preview in the Print dialog. Do I actually have to print, or should the preview be empty, already indicating a problem?

@Aron: For me, the preview was already empty, it was one of the first things I noticed when trying to reproduce.
