[Bug 2121406] [NEW] Print dialog in Gnome Papers takes 30 seconds to appear
Public bug reported:
In 25.04 and now in 25.10 beta, the print dialog in Papers takes about 30 seconds to appear after pressing Ctrl+P. During this time, it is also not possible to quit the app: a dialog appears proposing to "Close after printing", "Cancel" or "Abort Print and Close"; choosing "Abort Print and Close" does not close the app.
On the same machine, the print dialog in Evince works fine, opening the same PDF file. The print dialog appears immediately upon pressing Ctrl+P.
Here is the output of Papers when running it from a terminal:
```

```
The Gtk-WARNING line appears upon pressing Ctrl+P. Nothing else appears when the dialog finally opens.
