             Bug #: 45630
           Summary: : Printer Driver Options do not Work with LO Documents
                    (Duplex, Pages per Sheet)
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.5 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Libreoffice
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: harald-koes...@htp-tel.de


Two Problems:

[1] My printer driver also supports, like LO, a "Pages per sheet" option. This
option does not work together with LO. Suppose you want to print 2 pages on one
sheet. You choose the LO option "1 page per sheet" and the printer driver
option "2 pages per sheet". In this case two sheets are printed in landscape
format. On the left side of the sheets one page is printed and the right side
is empty. If you change the options (LO: 2 pages per sheet, Printer driver: 1
page per sheet) the document is printed correct: 2 pages on one sheet in
landscape format.
By the way: This problem was my first impression when I changed from OOo to LO
and a thought "Oh sh...". With OOo 3.3 
the printer driver option worked correct.

[2] My printer driver supports a manual duplex printing: Printer starts with
left pages, message from printer driver to put the sheets vice versa into the
paper tray, printer prints right pages. This function of the printer driver
does not work together with LO. In this case all pages are printed one after
another without a break on the same side of the sheets. Also here OOo worked as
expected here.

To both problems you can say "LO supports this function too". But you have to
know it (I did not.) and if you know you have to search for it. And if you are
used to use the printer options, you don't want to change your behaviour,
especially if you use the printer options in other applications.
