Safari crashes when trying to print any web page

In Safari on my MacBook Air M2, attempting to print a page through the Print Page menu option or Command+P will consistently cause Safari to crash. The first time you try to print, the print window will open and printing will work, but the second attempt to print always causes a crash before the window can open.

I've tried disabling all extensions, clearing Safari's cache, and trying to print in Safe Mode, but these crashes continue to happen. They don't happen in other browsers like Chrome. I've added a crash log as additional text below.

Safari 12.1 not opening print window (SOLVED) Since Safari 12.1 I have been having a bizarre problem when trying to print anything from the Safari Browser. Usually on Command - P or hitting the print menu option, it opens a new window with a preview and some options for Printing. But since 12.1 nothing happens except a sound alert. After trying all kinds of stuff, it seems to be a bug with Javascript call Window.print() command which Safari does not execute. At last, I did have success doing the following: Go to Safari->Settings->Security and deactivate JavaScript button. Then go to ->Tabs and activate "Open new tabs or window in foreground", then go back to Security and re-activate JavaScript option. After relaunch of Safari the problem disappeared and now I can print again from Safari as ususal. I hope this helps.

"Print" Crashes Apps in Ventura 16.2 Since upgrading from Monterey to Ventura 16.2 (18614.3.7.1.5) on my iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2020, 128 GB memory: Whenever I type cmd-P or select "Print" from the "File" menu -- in MOST applications -- that application crashes: Safari, Graphic Converter, Preview. Or, if I "Open in Preview" from the "Print" window. Some apps that DON'T crash when I "Print:" Stickies, Brave Browser, Firefox (but I get a print error message in Firefox, and can't print). I had no problems at all like this when I was using Monterey or previous MacOS's. Troubleshooting steps: 1) These crashes DO occur in Safe Mode. 2) I've successfully run Disk Utility from Recovery Mode. 3) I've reinstalled Ventura 16.2, with no change. 4) I've run the full suite of Onyx Maintenance utilities. 5) I've reset NVRAM. 6) I've reset the SMC. 7) These crashes DO NOT occur in a Test account. Of course, I'll continue to bang my head against the iMac -- but in the meantime, any thoughts, or solutions? Thanks in advance.

Oversized Print Dialogue window Ventura 13.4.1(c) Using Safari 16.5.2 when I wish to print something the Print dialogue box is showing too big and I can't see the print button. I know I can just press return, but if I want a PDF or to Cancel - I cannot select either. This happened a year or so ago and there was a system update to correct it. Same again please Apple - and please stop missing those lines of code!
