print() isn't really doing true print screen

I have an app and have added print() to it.  It is a long form.  Top of the form I click print and it does the print ok.  I scroll down to get the middle of the form and the print doesn't print what I'm seeing on the screen it is off.  When I scroll to the bottom ... same thing.  I know the print for a long form doesnt work.  Sad but I accept that.  But since what I read is that the print() is just a print screen.. I would think if I scrolled down in the form and clicked print it would do a print screen of the data I see thus I could fake this out to work on a long scroll screen by teaching the user to print, scroll, print, scroll, print.  But that isn't working either.  Does any one have a suggestion? I guess next I will have to go to teaching them snipit and print if this doesnt work.  Also is there any timeline on getting the print to work properly and print the entire form?

    Hi @dmclaughlin,

    Do you want to print the entire form using the Print() function?

     

    The Print function in Power Apps opens the current screen in the default browser print dialog, so I'm afraid you could not use the Print function to print a scrollable screen.
     
    You could use flow to save the PowerApps forms data as pdf.  I have a test for your reference, please check as below.
    1). Add a button and create a flow as below
