qpdfview is awfully simple.
#apt install qpdfview (does well with trixie and sid)
It prints well with CUPS that provides a driver for my Kyocera FS-920 b
laser printer. That printer is 15 years old.

Perhaps fact checking of the following is required. Gnome forked xpdf to
have a library (poppler) for a PDF viewer (evince). For security reasons

I use zathura which is also quite light but I'm not sure if you can

responded.
Happy Christmas!
