    This seems to become a common question, see e.g.
    * https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/issues/515
    * https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/issues/768
    * https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2020-February/msg00096.html

+
+<p>If you run a <link href="https://flathub.org/";>Flatpak</link> version of
+<app>Evolution</app>, then you cannot print an email to a printer. This is a
+<link href="https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=192748";>limitation of the
+underlying WebKitGTK library</link> used by Evolution.</p>
+
+<p>To print an email to a file, you can run <cmd>flatpak run --filesystem=home
+org.gnome.Evolution</cmd> as a workaround.</p>
