Hello I used to be able to print a hard copy of my passwords. How do I print with the new version on the Mac?

I have many elderly clients who feel much more secure having a physical hard-copy of the passwords stored somewhere safe. It's not uncommon for them to forget their master password or to forget how to get back into 1Password periodically. I also like to save out my passwords every 6 months in the very unlikely occurrence that the server or a malicious actor wipes my data -- a client of mine lost their LastPass data that way so it's personally of concern.
For novices, even if they choose to never print out the passwords, the idea that the feature exists helps bring some calm when I suggest they start learning and using 1Password.
The printing feature on 7 was so fantastic as you could choose to print 2 pages per page and double sided to get things out in a visually appealing and simple to read method -- kudos to the devs who put together the print feature in the past.
I'll stick with version 7 and advise those clients of mine who need the feature to stay on version 7 until 8 has it.
Much appreciated for your work and I really hope the feature returns!
