Other BZ referred to is #209621 It would be useful to know if anyone else sees this problem at all. If not I'll assume its a quirk of my system configuration and start looking to see what caused it myself. I've no idea on how to set queue defaults, but as far as i can see we are doing it right except in the part that the dialog does not "read" the queue defaults, right? Any tip on how to set those? *** Bug 211419 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Albert: I just re-read your comment #3 and realized that maybe I can answer this after all. In our case the printing system is cups and the printer queue defaults are set though the printer ppd files on the cups server. You can get the current defaults using the cupsGetOption function described at http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/api-cups.html#OPTIONS I'll attach a simple program, modified from an example on that page, which returns the printer default for duplexing. You need to link it against libcups.so Option names are described at: http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/options.html Does this answer your question? Created attachment 38080 [details]
Program to list default duplexing from a cups server
Closing the bug as this is not *kde* problem, it is Qt one, probably either http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6471 or http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6433 Feel free to register in Qt bug tracker and vote for these issues Hallo, I was entering a bug report about this problem and it happens also in my openSUSE 11.2/ KDE 4.3.5 release 0 in exactly the same way. Also by setting in file/print/optios/options the long side flag in stead of none prints duplex @Frans: This is all fixed in kde 4.4, and the qt library version it requires. Of course you may have to wait for this to be released in your distro unless you built it yourself. Is it fixed? I suffer this bug in Kubuntu Maverick with Kde 4.5.2 :( May be my setup is screwed up, printing from all programs work but not from okular (now on KDE 4.5.2 OpenSuSE , libqt4-4.7.0-134.1.x86_64) espcially same pdf from evince and acroread work without problems * page orientation - displayed landscape is often printed portrait on landscape or landscape on portrait * CUPS queue settings (double side printing) are overwritten - must specify double side printing for each document hi, I have the same problem here with Suse linux 11.3 (Kde 4.4.4) and Okular 0.10.4 ... Somebody here told me that this could be a Qt-Problem ... I did not yet follow this hint. anybody knows a solution? cheers Jörg |
