--- Comment #94 from Thomas Passin <[email protected]> --- The timeout/hanging problem hasn't happened on my new Windows 11 computer, and it started out in life at Windows 11 Version 23H2. The first update to the computer was 23H2/KB4023057, and I'm fairly sure (though going by memory) that I hadn't seen the problem even then. As for people who have reported a similar problem on Linux, I've never had it on VMs of half a dozen distros, so it must be idiosyncratic to certain combinations of OS/printing systems. I'll bet it's the same cause, though: a timeout while waiting on the printer system for its info on the active printer. I don't know how LO checks for printer info nor why some but not all of the apps (like Calc) need to do so. Knowing what I know now, if it were me I'd assume some generic printer at start up (or the last known one), and run the printer check on a separate thread so it doesn't block the main GUI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
