Created attachment 88932 [details, diff] libgnomeprint ebuild applying patch
Created attachment 88933 [details, diff] cups multipage print patch the cups multipage print patch from GNOME bugzilla. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=46154
Selecting a different printing layout in the libgnomeui provided print dialog (e.g. 2 pages to 1) in any gnome application such as evince shows no effect. They get still printed 1 page to 1. This is a known and long standing libgnomeprint bug (see URL). AFAIU, libgnomeprint is unmaintained as its functionality is about to get merged into GTK+. The attached patch (stripped of the ChangeLog diff) for the libgnomeprint-2.12 ebuild applies and builds cleanly (tested on x86 and amd64) and multipage printouts now work for me (tested with evince). have fun, tamer.
I just applied the patch, too, and rebuilt libgnomeprint . Neither the multipage printing nor other layout settings (only even/odd pages, ...) worked here. The patch was applied: [...] >>> Unpacking libgnomeprint-2.12.1.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/gnome-base/libgnomeprint-2.12.1/work * Applying libgnomeprint-2.12.1-multipage-print.patch ...

Which gnome version are you using? Works fine for me using Gnome 2.14. Which application have you tried printing with? Is this application using libgnomeprint? Verify with e.g.: $ ldd /usr/bin/evince | grep libgnomeprint Based on your: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" it appears to me you are running gnome 2.16, where it might be that the application you are using does not use libgnomeprint (see: http://www.gnome.org/start/2.16/notes/C/rnbackend.html) anymore and therefore a patch in the corresponding gtk library would be due to make this work. In any case, it would be worth checking with upstream upon the status of this problem in newer gnome releases.
Please excuse me being so imprecisely. (In reply to comment #5) > Which gnome version are you using? Works fine for me using Gnome 2.14. Which > application have you tried printing with?

The printing dialog there on that website looks exactly like the one I have here. Please let me know if you need more information.
Evince 0.6.1 on gnome 2.16.x will use gtkprint, not libgnomeprint. You'll have to try something else. It appears gedit still uses libgnomeprint.
Im sorry, but we wont integrate this patch. libgnomeprint is on its way out, things are migrating to GtkPrint.
