I have a duplex printer. In system-config-printer-kde, I have set duplexing on long edge as standard. This is respected by other applications (e.g. adobe acrobat reader). However, when I want to print with okular and just klick printing, the duplex option is not set. To get duplex output, i must set it manually everytime. This is quite annoying. Okular should accept the printer settings from kde.

Hello Benjamin, can you add the version of okular you're using to the bugs subject line, thanks Michael
I use the most recent okular version from the kde overlay. However, this bug was present since Kde4.0, at least on my system. I thought that it was a kde problem that the people at kde would fix sooner or later. But now we have kde 4.4, and it is not fixed. So I thought that i post it here.
Probably related to bug 310955 and bug 306895
Confirmed, I'm seeing this too.
(In reply to comment #4) > Confirmed, I'm seeing this too. > Wish I had that problem ... since upgrading to 4.4.4 from 4.3.5 I can't print from KDE apps ... get a print dialogue, click okay, and it disappears into nowhere. Jobs do not show up in CUPS. Printing works fine from Firefox or OpenOffice. My epson EPL-N3000 duplex laser also often (since migrating from 3.5.10, IIRC) complains that it "can't print duplex" from Firefox, when it used to before. Can't even find Printer Admin for KDE anymore ... the menu option System -> Manage Printing launches me straight into CUPS. Problem exists on two different AMD64 boxes. thanks, Ian
Same here. Since upgrading to 4.4.4, I can't print from KDE apps. Jobs do not show up in CUPS. Cups test page is fine and I can print from the shell using "lp".

Gnome apps don't have a problem, only KDE apps.
Add the following line to /etc/cups/cupsd.conf: Listen *:631 Solved the problem for me.
(In reply to comment #8) > Add the following line to /etc/cups/cupsd.conf: > Listen *:631 > > Solved the problem for me. > Tried that and restarted cupsd, still no luck. cupsd.conf now starts: LogLevel info SystemGroup lpadmin # Allow remote access Port 631 Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock Listen *:631 # Enable printer sharing and shared printers. etc
What's the status here, does this still happen with kde-4.6.2? If yes, please try upgrading cups to version 1.4...
Don't know about 4.6.2, still on 4.5.5 (stable), but my problem was sorted a long time ago, regret can't remember HOW it got fixed, but it did. Answer is probably somewhere in the forums. Thanks. Original poster had a slightly different problem so they should comment...
Reading the upstream kde bug report, this seems to boil down to a feature / patch request for QT that never got implemented. Maybe the QT guys know something...
Relevant upstream bug reports. http://bugs.kde.org/180051 with PATCH in #29 QT BUG report, without much action from NOKIA http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-3567 Distribution fixes applying this patch: Redhat https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=480954 OpenSUSE https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552218
Created attachment 282995 [details, diff] patch copying cups default settings to QPrinterDialog Patch from Kevin Kofler, applies cleanly and builds fine with qt-4.7.3. I'm testing.
QT team, please consider integrating attached patch into our qt-gui ebuilds. SuSE and RedHat already do for ages...
