Print dialog box too large

Why ?  Maybe because the Windoze Gimp print plugin has not been updated from Gimp 2.4 days. The dialog does not adjust and the dark theme cuts the bottom off hiding the "Ignore Page Margins toggle". Also missing the  'Draw Crop Marks' toggle (came in with Gimp 2.8 I think).

Edit: Looking at what is possible.
This is the Windows Gimp 2.8 print dialogue: https://i.imgur.com/dx8gG5D.jpg Both margins and crop marks show. Note the shortcuts Alt-M for margins and Alt-D for crop marks.
These toggles still work in Gimp 2.10 even if not visible in the dialogue: Printed this to a PDF . https://i.imgur.com/6rVASb5.jpg showing crop marks.
Little wonder the advice to Windows users, is often, try some other application for printing.
