[PyQt] Printing from QWebView (contents visible) gives a set of blank pages

[ivanko.rus]

Thank you for answering. The strange thing is that my versions are the same

HTML to a QTextEdit and then printing it from there, so for now it will
serve (the pages I am loading into my QWebView are actually pretty simple).
But thanks anyway!
