The auto print in the browser breaks the app

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Currently I have an application under development that has several URLs which include a query param that triggers auto print and, consequently, calls the printer dialog window. However, at the very moment that dialog should appear, the application suddenly closes.

I don’t expect the printing functionality to work within the browser, but what I would like is a fallback so that the app, the IDE, doesn’t close abruptly.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the integrated browser.
  2. Open a URL that triggers auto print.
  3. Wait for the print dialog window to appear.

Operating System

MacOS

Version Information

3.15.19 11.ago.2026

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey there! Thanks for the clear repro.

This isn’t anything in your page or setup, and it’s not something you can toggle off. Any print trigger in the built-in browser (auto-print on load, Cmd+P, an embedded button) currently closes the app on recent macOS. For now, open those auto-print URLs in Chrome or Safari when you need the dialog, and keep the built-in browser for everything else.

The fallback you’re asking for is fair. This is something we’ve seen before and an issue we’re tracking, so we’ve let the team know your case too. I’ll post here when there’s an update.
