Version: unknown (using KDE 3.3.2, Gentoo) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.4 20040623 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.4-r1, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.9 I asked to print 4 pages per page to save some paper and it did not work preview showing all pages as the option would not have been set and it prints them all ignoring my option. and click Save before printing to be sure, the option is still set. additionaly, I can't ask for Dual printing, its grayed out, but my printer supports it. I use a Raw printer driver, using a PostScript compatible Xerox Phaser 860 thank you.
The fact that you don't see the result in the preview is normal, because the processing will be done in the server/printer, not in at the application-level (where the preview takes place). There's a possibility to perform those operations at application-level, using the "Filter" tab of the printer properties dialog: select the filter you want to use and set the options you want (double-click on filter item). The problem here is that you installed your printer as a raw printer. This means that the print server won't process the print data at all and pass them to the printer as-is. What then happens is that the print options are correctly sent to the print server, but it ignores them because the printer is a raw printer. I'd suggest to install the printer using the generic postscript driver. This will also enable the dual printing (kdeprint extracts printer capabilities from the driver, but there's none, so some features are simply disabled).
Using raw driver doesn't allow configuration.
