Why version set to 0.19.60 then?

Can you please say really which Okular version do you have?

Also what cups version do you have?

Comment 3 Cédric Bellegarde 2014-05-12 22:25:55 UTC

Sorry for version, fixed.

Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2014-05-15 20:10:27 UTC

What about the cups question?

Comment 5 Cédric Bellegarde 2014-05-16 07:42:23 UTC

1.7.2-0ubuntu1

Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2014-05-20 21:28:17 UTC

Yes, cups 1.7.2 somehow regresses the bugfix i made for bug 319476

Comment 8 Tim Edwards 2016-02-10 07:42:46 UTC

If this bug can't be fixed would it be better instead to just have Okular use the lpr command directly to print things? That works as a manual workaround for me at the moment

Comment 9 Michael Weghorn 2018-01-17 14:12:14 UTC

Does the problem still exist with current versions of Okular?
If so, can you please attach the PPD file of the printer? (It should be at /etc/cups/ppd/<PRINTERNAME>.ppd .)

Comment 10 Tim Edwards 2018-01-18 09:48:39 UTC

Please leave this open for a while? I'll test again when I get new printer ink cartridges

Comment 11 Michael Weghorn 2018-01-18 09:54:11 UTC

Thanks, that is great if you can do a retest.

Comment 12 Tim Edwards 2018-01-24 11:08:55 UTC

I did a couple of test prints of PDF documents. I don't see this problem anymore, closing
