There is no error. There is no timeout. Not in the PrintDialog object.

Is this a known Flash bug?
It's not a bug.
Is there a workaround?
You cannot change the timeout.
We've been trying to solve it for about a month.
A 5 second google search would have saved you 30 days of wasted time.

PrintJob is a poorly written class in general. Also, it runs

Well, there IS a workaround but you have to hack your swf using flasm and

Try and do anything advanced (such as a stock exchange
