Description Sabine Faure 2009-09-16 22:44:49 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

- Configure Akonadi with an IMAP and Kolab resource.
- Launch Kaddressbook
- Create or select a dozen of Contacts or more (so that there should be THREE printed pages)
- Go to File menu/Print...
- Select a printer. Warning: this bug does not happen if you select a .pdf file. Please use a real printer.
- Click on 'Print'
- Check the 'Selected contacts' QToolButton
- Click on 'Next'
- Select 'Detailed Style' from the Print Style combo box
- Click on 'Next'
- Click on 'Finish'

On the first page the headers are printed correctly.
On the second and third page, they are either missing completely or only printed as empty rectangle cells (much like a line in a spreadsheet with 6 different columns).

This is a regression since printing Contacts on a printer worked when I last tested it (on Friday 11/09/09 using Trunk, Svn Rev 1022237)

Hej,

what happens if you print it to a PDF file directly?
Are the headers still missing? Could you send me the
PDF in this case, please?

Ciao,
Tobias

This works fine if you print in a .pdf as I described above:
''- Select a printer. Warning: this bug does not happen if you select a .pdf
file. Please use a real printer.''

The bug only occurs when using a printer. 

I retested this today using a different printer (inkjet instead of laser so that it's a different printing driver) and I still get the same result: the .pdf has headers but the printed Contacts have hearders only on the first page.

Hej Sabine,

if the printer behaves differently than the PDF output this is
a bug in Qt and I can't do anything about that.

Ciao,
Tobias
