** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: libreoffice
  
- When trying to print an A3 opendocument text file, I need the printer to
- switch to another paper feeder. Though setting the paper format to
- letter or anything supported by the default paper feeder or changing
- page orientation works fine, switching the paper feeder gets partly
- ignored, that is when I close and reopen the printer settings dialog it
- just disappeared and the printer uses the other paper feed but only
- prints A4 on A3.
+ My printer has different paper feeders and the appropiate one needs to be 
selected for printing certain paper types.
+ Though, after selecting any non-default paper feeder, when reopening the 
printer properties dialog (using file => print => settings ; ok ; settings), 
the paper feeder setting is gone. Nevertheless, when not reopening the settings 
dialog, the
+ last paper feeder setting is used for printing. The main issue arises, when 
during this print (which uses the correct paper feeder), the wrong paper format 
is selected which causes the print to be rendered invalid.
+ The invalid printing is rendered in the preview the same kind as it gets 
printed, so I guess the paper format cannot be applied
+ due to libreoffice believing in the wrong paper feeder setting. (There are 
PPD UIConstraints that exclude my paper format 
+ and the default feeder to be combined.)
