You can follow what we discussed and what our plans are going forward here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T162414 The short of it is: * There is no way to asynchronously load images when a print is detected * We filed a bug upstream against the HTML standard: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/2532#issuecomment-294021096 * It looks like the only way to avoid this problem in the mean time is to provide a non-browser print button. > 2.
