xyplot print not present

[amienc]

I am trying to print my 'xyplot' from the dropdown but it prints the whole screen.
I'm using Phoebus version (master 2022-04-08 03:51)

Printing, and I mean it in the best possible way, sucks, because the API for printing eventually calls down into some operating system level where it's then stuck for various reasons:

• JavaFX Printing #1352
• CSS hangs after clicking Databrowser icon in toolbar, GTK Printer Issue cs-studio#356
• NPE when trying to print OPIShell. cs-studio#1352
• Print action from opi runtime results in cs-studio crash cs-studio#1937

Even if printing succeeds as far as software is concerned, the behavior of printers themselves is nicely summarized by this article in the new york times/wirecutter:

But sure, it should be fairly easy to add another print option to the context menu of plot widgets, so I'll look into that.
