Beyond the Basics Rendering tab missing in print dialog

    I used to be able to work around poor printing quality of some objects (those with filter effects?) by going to File -> Print -> Rendering and setting the backend to bitmap with 600 DPI. That worked fine on Windows 10. But I recently switched to a Windows 11 PC, and now I no longer see a rendering tab in the print dialog (see screenshot), and some printed objects are awfully low-res (whether I print directly to the printer or use "Microsoft print to PDF"). The only workaround I have now is to save (not print) to PDF and then print from Adobe Acrobat.

    I also noticed that the print preview is unavailable, but I don't remember if that ever worked.

    Is there any way to get access to the rendering option again?
