I think what you are missing here is
gtk_print_operation_set_allow_async()
Otherwise I would expect that the print operation runs it's own
main loop and synchronously runs the operation blocking any
other events until the operation completes.
Note, I have not tried using GtkPrintOperation myself, I could
be misguided, but this seems like an obvious bet ;-)
