Description mhirsch 2007-04-16 07:01:57 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 3.5.6, Kubuntu (edgy) 4:3.5.6-0ubuntu1~edgy1)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.15-27-amd64-generic

I have a printer that prints face up, so I've setup my printer driver setting to print in reverse order.  So I expect whatever I send to the print to reverse the order of the pages.

If I have a 3 page document in Konqueror, but only want the 1st page, I logically tell kprinter to print only page 1.  To my surprise I received page 3.  To get page 1 to print I had to tell kprinter to print page 3.

I don not think this behavior is right.  If I ask for page 1, I should get page 1.  The reversing of the pages is irrelevant to my request.  The pages I receive should have nothing to do with the driver settings.

Thanks,

Michael
