Description Ivo Anjo 2009-02-01 22:10:28 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When I'm printing, for example in okular, I can set duplex printing in Options > Options. But I can also set it in Properties > Advanced.

The problem is, these two places refer to the same thing, but are not synchronized. So if I select "long side" on the options part of the dialog, the properties dialog will still have duplex printing off (the default option), which is, of course, very confusing.

Another possible solution is not to display the duplicated option on the advanced dialog at all.

While the original bug report is for KDE 4 (and thus Qt 4) and the "Advanced" tab has initially been removed from the Qt 5 print dialog, it is now back (in the current development branch). The bug mentioned here has been fixed there as well, see the following two changes:

Since this has been fixed in Qt, I'm closing this bug report now.
