I figured it out (I think). There was no page 17 in the document (even
though the page number at the bottom said page 17 or 28). If this is the
problem, then Chrome should indicate how many pages there are in the
document.

Before making any changes to the page selection "All" is selected and
therefore the total number of pages should be displayed in the print
summary (top left).
Should this bug still be marked as "Available"? Are we looking for some UI
change to always display the total number of pages? We could add it next
to "All" maybe.

Can we change the error message to be dynamic, e.g.
Invalid page range, use numbers from 1 to 24 (e.g. 2–24)
?
Otherwise the main cause of this problem is the page content itself
misleading the user. We can’t really do much about that.

Comment 4 was about the error message underneath. The hint text is the
placeholder text within the text field before you start editing.
The main difference between the suggestion code and this is that the
suggestion code was trying to second-guess you, and wasn�t doing such a
great job sometimes. :�) This doesn�t.

I see, I confused the hint text with the error message. In that case the
error message could only be "Invalid page range, use numbers from 1 to x"
since everything else is included in the hint text.
