[Bug 552218] New: KDE4 print dialog forgets settings
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552218 Summary: KDE4 print dialog forgets settings Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: schmuker@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.3; Linux) KHTML/4.3.1 (like Gecko) SUSE The KDE4 print dialog does not remember any changes made to its settings. In addition, settings made via yast in the CUPS config are ignored. This is annoying especially for settings like duplex: The user needs to remember for _every_ print action to recheck the duplex printing option in one of the settings tab. This bug has already caused significant paper waste in our lab. It is a big annoyance to anyone who needs to print a lot with KDE. In addition and it's a regression from KDE3.5, where printer settings can be set and saved from the printer dialog. This bug has been reported to the KDE bugzilla, and although it is the bug with the most votes in kde-print there is no reaction whatsoever from a kde-print dev: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180051 There is also a corresponding bugreport in QT's bugzilla, also unassigned and with no schedule: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-3567 I hope there will be some merciful mind here at OpenSUSE who will not instantly mark this bug as a duplicate of something else but instead give some hope to the numerous users who are constantly annoyed by this bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Print a document, set duplex to on in the kprinter dialog 2. Print another document on the same printer, find that duplex is off Alternatively: 1. Use yast to configure a printer to use duplex 2. Print a document from KDE4 and find that it is not printed in duplex Actual Results: Settings in the kde printing dialog are not remembered. Settings made in the CUPS printer config are ignored by the KDE printing dialog. Expected Results: Settings should be remembered, or at least the settings made in CUPS should be respected. Found on OpenSUSE 11.1 with KDE4.3.1 from factory (release "183", current as of nov 3, 2009) -- 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.

I've been testing 11.3 on my personal machine and this duplex-printing-bug it the most annoying thing I've seen so far on KDE4.x. As it looks like this bug was around for more than 2 years, is relatively easy to fix on QT level, but the QT people have not bothered to fix it upstream. So it would be great if Novell would pick this up and fix it themselves, at least for OpenSuSE 11.4. Image an office of 100 people, forgetting to click on the duplex check box because KDE does not remember, and printing thousands of pages single-sided, just because of this SILLY bug. :-( -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

With the patch the Qt print dialog does not remember its last settings but uses the default values which are configured for the cups print queue. IMHO this is the desirable behaviour. Anyway it would be nice to also get feedback from others. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
