Priority: medium
Bug ID: 81821
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Available paper formats depends on system (CUPS)
settings
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.5.2 release
Component: Printing and PDF export
Product: LibreOffice
[test printer: Samsung Xpress M2875; test OS: Debian Jessie]
When I try to print something on DL Envelope paper size, it has to be earlier
configured in system-wide settings (http://localhost:631,
system-config-printer, etc.). I mean, that in File->Print->[select
printer]->Properties->Paper size I can't see all sizes, but only suitable with
default (currently configured in CUPS) (assume that it's 'Plain') paper type.
So that I can't print on DL Envelope, because it's not listed.
I have to select (assume that using system-config-printer) in Printer Options:
- page size: DL Env.,
- paper type: [thick or not] envelope.
You can see that there's condition: I can't save option [page size]=[DL Env.],
if paper type isn't compatible. There was no such condition in older PPDs (eg.
when trying to print DL Envelope on older Kyocera printers, there weren't such
problems).
After that I restart LibreOffice and try File->Print->[select printer]. Wow. I
see the magical DL Envelope. If I click Properties, then I can see all page
sizes available for [thick or not] envelope paper type.
I think that it's only a workaround, because normally I need superuser
permissions to change CUPS settings.
I've tried to test it on Windows, but after click on Properties, there's only
configuration window from Samsung.
