Using 'share' to try to print an email creates a webpage or even 404 but not the email content

Hi,  Using the latest beta on Android 15 on a Samsung A55...   struggling to print any email.  I cannot find any direct print command so I share to Epson iprint or  Epson smart panel and it seems ONLY strange web content is sent to be shared...   like 404 not found, WordPress.com or even an advert but not the email content.  One email content was shared but the text was either white on white or a panel was in front of the text, I know this was a horribly formatted email because even copying it into word, trying to get wysiwyg was a fairly nasty experience.

Is anyone else having this issue?

I also thought the app Permissions page was strange in that only toggling  "notifications" were an option

Print Direct anyone?

Hey there! Yeah, using the “share” button to print an email can get messy—it pings your content into a web page layout, not a clean print view. If you’re trying to print directly from your email app, it works much better to use the app’s own “print” option or hit ctrl+p (cmd+p on mac). That way everything stays formatted properly and avoids weird layouts.

Let me know if you’re using thunderbird—or another client—and I’d be happy to walk through the best printing route for it!

I cannot find any print mechanism within the Thunderbird beta.

The content sent to share doesn't seem to be the email content, and also, why would share not be wysiwyg?

Thanks
