Thank you for trying it, but you did not execute the reprex completely: 
you never loaded |kableExtra|. The reprex in-short (I should have 
included it this way the first time):

|plot(1:2) # or ggplot(mtcars, aes(mpg, disp)) + geom_point() # with the 
quartz window active, press Cmd-P, no fail library(kableExtra) # with 
the quartz window active, press Cmd-P, fail |

I must say that I’ve not seen this before:

|> sessionInfo() R Under development (unstable) (2024-11-10 r87316) |

so it’s not clear to me what version of R you are actually using; based 
on the “2024-11-10” timestamp, I can guess it’s R-4.4.2. Is |R.version| 
less vague about this?

BTW: a colleague of mine has the same MBP (M4) on Sequoia 15.5, R-4.4.3, 
and he can reproduce the fail. Since we are both on Sequoia 15.5 and you 
are on 14.7.2, perhaps it’s an OS thing, but it would be interesting if 
you reproduce it when you execute the reprex completely.
