Excellent, in my case I changed it to render in MD instead of SM.

Bootstrap 4.1.1 is out and this is STILL an issue 😞 . I tried changing what they recommend:
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/getting-started/browsers-devices/#printing

@media print {
  @page {
    size: auto;
  }
}

and even overwriting their variable$print-page-size in _variables.scss to:

$print-page-size: auto;

but only your solution seems to work. Thank you 👍

What a lifesaver in printing a Bootstrap 4 website into a PDF to turn into the SEC for a requirement! Thank God I found this!
