[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.
