window.print inclusive textarea values

I am trying to print an html page, which works wonderfully, but I am missing the values ​​within the text areas when printing?

How can I include the values ​​of the text areas?

Here is the code of the print function:

  function print(section) {
    var printWindow = window.open('', '', 'height=600,width=800');
    printWindow.document.write('<html><head><title>Navigationlog</title>');

            //Print the Table CSS.
            var table_style = document.getElementById("table_style").innerHTML;
            printWindow.document.write('<style type = "text/css">');
            printWindow.document.write(table_style);
            printWindow.document.write('</style>');
            printWindow.document.write('</head>');
    
            //Print the DIV contents i.e. the HTML Table.
            printWindow.document.write('<body>');
            var divContents = document.getElementById(section).innerHTML;
            printWindow.document.write(divContents);
            printWindow.document.write('</body>');
    
            printWindow.document.write('</html>');
            printWindow.print();
            printWindow.close();;
  }

Here is the complete example code:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8" />
</head>

<style id="table_style" type="text/css">
  @media print {

      left: 0;
      right: 0;
    }
    textarea {

    }
    #routeTable td {
      font-size: 1.0vw;

Just giving a point, you are just selecting all innerHTML but not the values. So one of the easiest way is to just save the textarea values and assign it back while printing in a printWindow.

I just added the above words in programming sentence in the below code.

function print(section) {
       var textArea1 = document.getElementById('1').value;
       var textArea2 = document.getElementById('2').value;
       var textArea3 = document.getElementById('3').value;
        var printWindow = window.open('', '', 'height=600,width=800');
        printWindow.document.write('<html><head><title>Navigationlog</title>');

                //Print the Table CSS.
                var table_style = document.getElementById("table_style").innerHTML;
                printWindow.document.write('<style type = "text/css">');
                printWindow.document.write(table_style);
                printWindow.document.write('</style>');
                printWindow.document.write('</head>');
        
                //Print the DIV contents i.e. the HTML Table.
                printWindow.document.write('<body>');
                var divContents = document.getElementById(section).innerHTML;
                printWindow.document.write(divContents);
                printWindow.document.write('</body>');
        
                printWindow.document.write('</html>');
                printWindow.document.getElementById('1').value = textArea1;
                printWindow.document.getElementById('2').value = textArea2;
                printWindow.document.getElementById('3').value = textArea3;
                printWindow.print();
                printWindow.close();
      }

I think it's not the best way. But it works very fine.
