Ah, now I got it!
If I type my own filename, everthing gets reset, otherwise not.
Don't like that. Why do you want that?
I suggest something like:
void FormPrint::update()
{
static bool skip = false;
if (skip)
return;
else
skip = true;
PrinterParams & pp = controller().params();
...
That initialization work is done only once, at the first invokation.
After that, it keeps remembering previous settings.
This has, unfortunately, one odd behaviour: when I change entries, but
then click on [Cancel], the changed entries are remembered. We may not
want that, do we?
But at least we are getting closer here, I believe.

And, eh, there's a very strange behaviour concerning file output.
1. start LyX and open a doc, e.g. /home/lahaye/newfile1.lyx
2. open the print dialog
file name field has "/home/lahaye/newfile1.ps"
3. Select destination "File"
Use [Browse] to select "/home/lahaye/whatever.ps".
4. Notice that the filename field in the dialog now only has "whatever.ps".
5. When I click [OK] or [Apply], the output is sent to
"/tmp/lyx_tmpdir87891l9G2pa/lyx_tmpbuf0/newfile1.ps"
and NOT to "/home/lahaye/whatever.ps".
This is a bug.
Somehow the path got lost somewhere and tmp directory is used instead.
Cheers,
Rob.
