Bug ID: 395150
Summary: Okular print dialog always resets to duplex: none
Product: okular
Version: 1.3.3
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: printing
Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org
Reporter: sergio.calleg...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
After an upgrade to ubuntu bionic and the latest KDE applications distributed
for this platform, I am experiencing an issue with okular.
Whenever I open the okular print dialog the duplex option is preset to none for
all printers, even those where long edge duplex is the default at the system
level. This is an issue that leads to a huge waste of paper whenever one
forgets checking.
I strongly suspect that the issue is with the QT print dialog rather than with
okular, but I am anyway asking here for an informed opinion.
Incidentally, I really think that KDE should move away from the extremely poor
qt print dialog as it was in the past, because from the qt dialog no printer
properties can be controlled (print quality, ink consumption, paper type,
stapling, etc.), which means keeping a non qt pdf reader around for any pdf
print need that requires some control over the printer.
