First voice access and now print, we're getting to see more and more changes to W11 in the finer aspects of productivity.

Now this is less about physical printers but - one of the buggiest experiences I had on W11 was using the built-in save to PDF feature, which was shockingly slow as it was somehow configured to convert webpages to images first before generating the file, resulting in large and unsearchable PDFs. Unsure of whether this was supposed to be intended behaviour as this print option made it out of WIP, but I'm going to hope WPP gets tested a bit more extensively by the print team lest it ends up spewing out unusable results too 🫠
