Regulatory aspect of the PIL
It might be a local/national/airline rules thing but FWIW we don't even need a PIL on board at all to legally depart (but we usually get one on paper or electonically). We certainly wouldn't delay departure for a reprint or a new print out for e.g. missing passengers.
OTOH I assume legally at least someone on the ground must have an up to date list/PIL.

I not so sure that legally you even need a list of passengers. You should really know how many you have for weight and balance and that any baggage on board belongs to those who are flying (with appropriate exceptions). But common sense says once should be a available somewhere and a copy on board can be useful. But I certainly won't wait for a printed or electronic copy if it means a delay.

ps. Missing passengers, paper PIL? Why not cross out the names of the misssing PAX.
