Elephant in the room.
I stopped printing on paper about 2013. I "print" to epub and proof / annotate on eink.
I sometimes have to check PDFs or read PDFs, so have choice of TCL Nxtpaper 11 (matt and almost like colour print paper or eink, laptop with matt add-on 2560x1440 16″ screen or matt 23″ 4K screen on workstation. Saved about 250,000 A4 sheets of paper and associated ink/toner environment and time in the last 10 years. Sometimes the 8″ Sage eink is big enough for a PDF.
For an entire book or something that needs to be on paper for someone else I'd use Print24 or Lulu Print On Demand. Or loan them an ereader. It's cheaper to buy and give someone an ereader than print 15 novels.
Normally I only generate PDF for POD / Publishing, hence the preferred route of LO Writer. I have used print from Calibre viewer occasionally to create a PDF, though not to have it on paper.
If it's just a paper copy you need you can try printing from the Calibre viewer.
A also sometimes use The GIMP to process poor PDFs (only available as PDF) or ImageMagick or K2PDFOPT

I do use Inkscape, but not for PDFs.
