This is Windows printing common dialogs. This should go under an existing Common Dialogs exception.

@merriemcgaw could you please elaborate your comment, could you please help me with some reference using which we can log external bug for this issue. Thanks in advance :)

@12-shweta - this UI is created using the CommonDialog APIs in Windows. Windows has refused to make changes to multiple legacy UI cases in the CommonDialog APIs. We have an exception already for the OpenFileDialog and the ColorPickerDialog and I've filed another one here for the print and font related dialogs. These are all part of legacy windows UI components that they're moving away from so it doesn't make sense for them to update it. They didn't remove the APIs (nor will we) because that would completely break legacy applications, but customers are advised to use different options.
