Printing a webpage to a postscript file in a directory where the user does not have write privileges gives no feedback that the operation failed. No file is created, and no "Permission Denied" warning message occurs.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any webpage.
2. Go to File->Print
3. Select PostScript/default and the "Print to File" checkbox, then print.
4. When prompted for the filename, select a directory where you don't have write permission (e.g. /).
Actual Results:
It goes through the motion of printing to file, but no file is created and no warning message occurs.

Expected Results:
The program should prompt the user immediately that permission is denied.
