Thanks for the quick feedback! I have just uploaded this fix to Ubuntu, it is waiting in the review queue. Per the procedure, when it is accepted you will be asked to test the fix again, this time installing the packages from bionic-proposed repository.
Also updated the bug description to contain the needed fields for stable release procedure. ** Description changed: Please backport Qt patch 213677 to qtbase-opensource-src https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/213677 - In Qt5 applications, print dialog (Printer Properties) always defaults - to A4 paper size, even when Letter is set as a default in all system and - KDE preferences. After changing manually, Letter-size pages print - correctly, but the setting does not stick. The issue also affects other - print settings, e.g. margins, though the aforementioned patch does not - deal with these. A similar issue regarding the duplex setting was - reported as Launchpad bug 1776173, and subsequently fixed, but other - print settings continue to cause problems. + [Impact] + In Qt5 applications, print dialog (Printer Properties) always defaults to A4 paper size, even when Letter is set as a default in all system and KDE preferences. After changing manually, Letter-size pages print correctly, but the setting does not stick. - Behavior expected: Print dialog would default to Letter paper size, - which is set in all available system and KDE preferences, and that was - selected for previous prints. + This impacts users of Qt applications who print things and live in + countries where ISO 216 is not default, most notably the United States. - Behavior observed: Print dialog always defaults to A4, and page size - needs to be changed manually before every print. + [Test Case] + 1) Use system settings (KDE preferences, gnome-control-center or system-config-printer) to set the printer size to Letter. + 2) Open any Qt application (e.g. KWrite or Falkon). + 3) Open a print dialog. + 4) Behavior expected: Print dialog would default to Letter paper size and not A4. + + [Regression Potential] + Two possibilities for regressions that I can imagine are: + - crashes because something is not defined; + - wrong default paper size (A4 wanted but CUPS returns something else). + + [Additional Information] + The issue also affects other print settings, e.g. margins, though the aforementioned patch does not deal with these.

After changing manually, Letter-size pages print correctly, but the setting does not stick. This impacts users of Qt applications who print things and live in countries where ISO 216 is not default, most notably the United States. [Test Case] 1) Use system settings (KDE preferences, gnome-control-center or system-config-printer) to set the printer size to Letter. 2) Open any Qt application (e.g. KWrite or Falkon). 3) Open a print dialog. 4) Behavior expected: Print dialog would default to Letter paper size and not A4. [Regression Potential] Two possibilities for regressions that I can imagine are: - crashes because something is not defined; - wrong default paper size (A4 wanted but CUPS returns something else). [Additional Information] The issue also affects other print settings, e.g. margins, though the aforementioned patch does not deal with these.
