Version: (using KDE 4.3.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages The printwizard fails to remember the print settings and appears to reset after each job is completed. When printing a number of pieces on an individual basis this is a nuisance item. The system should remember: Printer_Name, Paper_size, Orientation, Margins etc.
David, sorry what is exactly that is forgotten? I mean which steps to reproduce it? I can always find my last printing setups back but: 1) HP printer and their "custom" pages (e.g. 10x15cm...) 2) Custom page layout, in which you can choose how many photos or each photo dimension. In the first, i cannot do anything (at least now) i from driver i have "custom" as page size for any pages not standard (A4...) and nothing else to select it back. In the latter all it's saved but custom page layout is not selected for a choice i made. Here I could do something perhaps, but i have to change a lot of code. If that is your point well i will talk to Gilles to plan to add this feature.
left as unconfirmed, needinfo status hides it as fixed :(
Angelo; I think that I see the problem: I have 2 printers: a.) A standard office printer for all of my general work .. this is marked under HP/CUPS as my 'Default' printer. b.) My hi-colour wide printer that is only used for my photography. Under many programs (typically Gimp and others) when I start printing I must initially use FILE > PAGE_SETUP. This establishes my basic printing parameters for the duration of the session. .... ie. The print 'default' for the session is established. After that I can use FILE > PRINT. With your arrangement however, each time that a print is completed the program reverts to the HP/CUPS 'Default' settings. This is not a make or break situation with Digikam but somehow locking the current session parameters would make the system a little more friendly.

Yes, that a known issue i've added in my todo file (is also into svn) "QPrinterInfo::availablePrinters() seems to be usefull for PageSizes only for default in case of printers" I should open a QT upstream bug for this... What i can suggest as workaround if you have root access is to change default printer to get it working at the moment, sorry.

*** Bug 286735 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Problem still reproducible with current implementation of print creator tool from digiKam core 5.7.0. This need to be fixed. Gilles Caulier
Git commit 000fd1a154389d8e954a23a122fe3fb4b389f432 by Gilles Caulier. Committed on 05/07/2017 at 10:12. Pushed by cgilles into branch 'master'. Remove Same to All option. This will be the default mode now, as customization of caption for each image do not work. Same the settings when caption page is validated.
