Another subsequent issue is that it seems that OOo forgets your setting in "Printer Settings". Or in other words: It seems OOo has in its "Printer Settings" in any case "Letter" regardless what is set in the printing system and regardless what you had set before in OOo's "Printer Settings". -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From my point of view: Yes. It might be even two bugs in OOo (see comment #6).

OOo handles its own printer settings, yes.

Does it hinder the actual printing though? When you set the paper size to Legal, or something else that's not letter, then print it to that printer, does it print correctly or incorrectly?

I meant to say "when you set the paper size to Legal etc in the Format - Page dialog"... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

By the way: Even if "OOo handles its own printer settings", shouldn't it at least remember when the user had changed some settings? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Also, the proper way to change the printer setting globally is to run

/usr/lib/ooo3/program/spadmin

which will launch printer administration dialog, then change the setting there. Yes, it's hidden, and yes, it's clunky, but that's the current way of handling printer settings.

But the setting in Format - Page should take precedence in case the paper sizes differ between the printer and the page format settings... AFAIK.

Steps: 1) run /usr/lib/ooo3/program/spadmin 2) there are two printers, one is my installed printer( Bej-MFP-FujuXeroxAP450 ) and another is dummy which i think is the result of command lpadmin -p dummy \ -v file:/dev/null \ -P /usr/share/cups/model/Postscript.ppd.gz \ -o PageSize=Legal \ -E 3) i changed the Size of Bej-MFP-FujuXeroxAP450 to A4, the page size still be "Letter(8.5 * 11)" after rerun command /usr/lib/ooo3/program/spadmin changed the size of "dummy" to "A4", its size has been changed to "A4" after rerun command /usr/lib/ooo3/program/spadmin -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

So, looks like there is a slight bug in setting page size to this particular printer. Having said that, I have to set this a low priority bug since this bug doesn't cause any severe problem in the actual printing.
