Hi Michael,

It is always important to me to help if I can! So I will run these tests 
with Qt 5.11


But give me some time. I'm pretty sure I won't find the time before next 
week wednesday / thursday..

Hi Norbert,

thanks for the additional information.

Could you possibly do a test whether the problem is fixed with the
upcoming Qt version 5.11 from upstream?

Release candidate 2 has just been released.
You can e.g. download an installer (seems to be available for 64-bit
only) for GNU/Linux from
https://download.qt.io/development_releases/qt/5.11/5.11.0-rc2/ (file
"qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.11.0-rc2.run"). This can be run as a normal
user and be installed anywhere for testing, e.g. I quickly tested with
the preselected "$HOME/Qt5.11.0/" (make sure that  "Desktop gcc 64 bit"
is selected for installation).

It won't affect any applications by default, since the system Qt version
will continue to be used instead.
In order to test an application with this Qt version, you need to start
it from the command line with the environment variable 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'
set to the directory where the corresponding shared libraries are
located, e.g. for my case this was running the following command from
command line:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/Qt5.11.0/5.11.0/gcc_64/lib/ kate

Does your problem problem still occur with this Qt version?
(To verify that the new Qt version is actually used, you can e.g. check
that a new "Advanced" tab is there in addition to the "Page" and "Job
Options" ones after clicking on the "Properties" button in the print
dialog.)


Regards,

Hi Michael,

I followed your suggestion regarding LogLevel debug:

I opened a small PDF with okular, Ctrl-P, Printdialog, selected printer
CP3525, Preselected paper-size was "Letter", changed to "A4", OK,...

The argv[5] line in cups-log says:

D [15/May/2018:11:08:28 +0200] [Job 10104] argv[5]="Collate finishings=3
fit-to-page HPBookletScaling=FitPage HPColorSmart=Manual
HPTextRGB=VividSRGB job-billing media=Letter number-up=1
number-up-layout=lrtb outputorder=normal page-bottom=12 page-left=12
page-right=12 page-top=12 portrait print-color-mode=blue
sides=two-sided-long-edge
job-uuid=urn:uuid:731b559f-44c9-3bab-6464-3db75f8345f3
job-originating-host-name=localhost time-at-creation=1526375308
time-at-processing=1526375308 Duplex=DuplexNoTumble PageSize=Letter"

So the wrong PageSize is passed to cups

Printing the same PDF by "lpr -P CP3525 my.pdf" from commandline
produves a correctly scaled A4 output and leads to this argv[5] entry:

D [15/May/2018:11:44:05 +0200] [Job 10105] argv[5]="finishings=3
HPBookletScaling=FitPage HPColorSmart=Manual HPTextRGB=VividSRGB
number-up=1 print-color-mode=blue
job-uuid=urn:uuid:c21cabca-dac3-3849-425c-ed17673bbcea job-originating
host-name=localhost time-at-creation=1526377445
time-at-processing=1526377445"

/etc/papersize is a 3 bytes file containing "a4"

Norbert

Hi Norbert,

since this does not really seem to be a question on development, I'd
suggest to have the further discussion on the "kde" mailing list (meant
for user questions, etc.) rather than "kde-devel".

About your problem:


When printing from a KDE App, (tested with kwrite, kate, okular,gwenview), both printers 
are reported to have "US Letter" sized paper
loaded and the output is scaled down to fit on a Letter-sized sheet.

KDE applications use the Qt print dialog. I'd usually also expect the
page size to be initialized with the default value for the printer
(marked with '*' in the lpoptions output).
This has been fixed for the Qt print dialog a few months ago [1] and is
going to be part of Qt 5.11, along with some other improvements to the
print dialog (s. also [2]).
Since your Qt version is older, that fix is probably not in there yet
(unless openSUSE has backported it).

I'm not sure what might have caused the switch from A4 to Letter in your
case (maybe any change in '/etc/papersize' or the locale?).


Changing the papersize from Letter to A4 in the printer properties dialog is 
ignored and makes no difference.

It may be helpful to see what options are finally passed to CUPS. For
that, you can set 'LogLevel debug' in '/etc/cups/cupsd.conf', restart
the cups service (command: 'sudo systemctl restart cups.service'), print
again and have a look at the CUPS log (either /var/log/cups/error_log or
the journal, depending on what the 'ErrorLog' directive is set to in
'/etc/cups/cups-files.conf'.

The line that shows the options passed to CUPS is indicated by 'argv[5]'.

   Michael

since "lpoptions -p M476 -l" reports basically the same, I omit it's
output...

Both printers are loaded with A4 sized paper and the PageSize option
above reports an "*" in front of A4
Asking CUPS via it's web-interface it reports "Einstellungen:
