I have a black and white laser printer as default printer. Often I just print a PDF of something. When I open the printer dialog, the laserprinter is selected and since it is black and white, the printout is set to greyscale. When I change it to "Print To File (PDF)" it stays this way but when creating a PDF off something I think the user should explicitly have to set it to greyscale, otherwise it should be color. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have a black and white printer and have it as default printer 2. Open some KDE app and click Print 3. Select "Print To File (PDF)" in the printer selection (also true for Postscript, I guess) 4. Don't touch the other settings 5. Print Actual Results: The PDF is generated in greyscale Expected Results: The PDF is generated in color. Only if I explicitly want it in greyscale (ie. open the advanced settings and say "Greyscale") it should be that way.
@Kai Uwe: Is this still a problem? I think that this should be solved at the latest with the following change just integrated into Qt's "dev" branch: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/215069

Please reopen in case you're still experiencing any issues with Qt versions >= 5.11.
