Safari STILL won't print images in Reader View

When in Reader View, images from a web page show on screen but if you try to print (or save to PDF), all of the the images are replaced with placeholders. This problem has been well-documented for months, since Mac OS 15.4 (see Safari Reader not printing images - Apple Community) and now it's also happening in IOS!

I use this feature multiple times per day because I need to save step-by-step sewing instructions that are often heavily illustrated. The only alternative currently is to print or save the entire webpage, which makes for a jumbled, hard-to-read mess that is often up to 4X as long, due to sidebars and ads.

Is there a timeline to get this fixed? It's super, super frustrating.

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.

If you want to, you can send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem or a suggestion for change. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem/suggested change solved sooner. Pick the closest topic you can find.
