Far from being ready when only one major browser supports it. If you want this, you should vote for it to be focused on for interop-2026

Right now, the leading CSS proposals are `@container style()`, `corner-shape` and `break-after`

Yeesh.. I've definitely tried using break-after and being disappointed it didn't work properly. The amount of hoops I had to jump through to get things to print properly on paper...

    Agreed. This has come up multiple times during my job. It's gotten to the point where we had a microservice running that spun up selenium and printed the dom and then sent that pdf back to the front-end all just to make consistent print outputs. I've read tech blogs of others doing just that too so it's not uncommon.

    Unfortunately the test set of wpt does not have the capability to cover printed matter so relief isn't coming any time soon
