Windows printing is already a mess and a pain. Look to pre Windows 7, an easy standard print dialog.

A dialogue box where it's obvious what you can click on, all the information you need is clearly displayed, and all the keyboard shortcuts are visible? Some UX designer at Microsoft will be having a fit. Better convert that all to React and hide most of it behind a hamburger menu at once; this isn't how things are done in Windows any more.

I still miss the XP Control Panel. We didn’t know how good we had it

Ah. I miss that good ui. Such a good ui. There's a reason it's still around on all the utility backend and admin stuffs.
