The QT 5 print dialog has always been extremely poor, with no possibility to provide information about things like print quality and resolution, paper type, stapling (for printers supporting it), etc. Now, QT 5.11 has finally a better print dialog and it would be great if the bionic users could use it.

Hi Dmitry, I've been testing the package in cosmic-proposed in the last few days.

In fact, it was a problem with a single printer of the many I use while roaming with my laptop and got fixed by updating the printer driver.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1776173] Re: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults
Hello Sergio, or anyone else affected, Accepted qtbase-opensource-src into cosmic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source /qtbase-opensource-src/5.11.1+dfsg-7ubuntu3 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from verification-needed-cosmic to verification-done-cosmic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-cosmic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Cosmic) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-cosmic ** Changed in: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed-bionic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776173 Title: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Cosmic: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] All kde applications shipped with ubuntu and particularly kubuntu bionic print via the qt print dialog, that, unfortunately, does not seem to respect the defaults set for the printer.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1776173] Re: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults
Hi Robert and Sergio! Sorry for the delay with fixing this. In Qt packaging team, we are all volunteers and work in our free time. Initially I hoped that one of my co-maintainers would take care of this issue, but looks like they also didn’t have time, so I fixed it myself for the development release. I will look at backporting this change to Bionic and Cosmic soon. Note that I applied only Robert’s patch that fixes duplex printing. For Ubuntu 19.04 we are going to ship Qt 5.12, which should have much better printing experience. If there are other patches that can be backported, please let me know. Also, if one of you adds a test case (steps to reproduce) for the duplex issue to the bug description, it will speed up the stable update a bit. ** Also affects: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Cosmic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: qtbase-opensource-src (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776173 Title: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Bionic: New Status in qtbase-opensource-src source package in Cosmic: New Bug description: All kde applications shipped with ubuntu and particularly kubuntu bionic print via the qt print dialog, that, unfortunately, does not seem to respect the defaults set for the printer.

I would be willing to have a look and try to backport the patch I provided. However, at first I would like to have an explanation from the ubuntu maintainers why the few-lines-patch I provided, which enables easy duplex printing for many people (and so safe a lot of paper), has not been included. Otherwise, I can only recommend to use a different distribution. There probably are some where maintainers can imagine that some users actually use their LTS distribution in a productive environment that want to print (duplex)... (Btw, I fully agree that a patch that would resolve more of the issues would be very nice. However such patch would require huge changes in the code which certainly will never be accepted...Let us better at least hope to fix the most annoying issue.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776173 Title: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: All kde applications shipped with ubuntu and particularly kubuntu bionic print via the qt print dialog, that, unfortunately, does not seem to respect the defaults set for the printer.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1776173] Re: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults
1) I confirm that the gray-scale printing option is completely ignored and that the printer prints always in color (this is definitively a bug). 2) I confirm that an option to select the printer tray is missing (though I think this may be a limitation in the qt version shipped with bionic). 3) I would like to add that okular "scales down" when printing A4 pdf documents, which badly breaks some flows. For instance, pages of the same document printed on the same printer with okular and any other linux PDF viewer do not align and cannot be mixed; flows needing accurate placement of cropmarks are broken (this is also a bug). Probably these should be new bugs, though. Still I wonder if moving to the current qt 5.9.7 from the bionic 5.9.5 could improve the situation. In the end qt 5.9 is a long term release with only bugfixes applied and it should be relatively safe to track it rather than introducing downstream patches. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776173 Title: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: All kde applications shipped with ubuntu and particularly kubuntu bionic print via the qt print dialog, that, unfortunately, does not seem to respect the defaults set for the printer.

See also https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395150 As a final comment and in general, I think that Bionic should be updated to use the QT 5.11 print subsystem (from 5.9.5) as soon as possible (at least via a kubuntu ppa). The QT 5 print dialog has always been extremely poor, with no possibility to provide information about things like print quality and resolution, paper type, stapling (for printers supporting it), etc. Now, QT 5.11 has finally a better print dialog and it would be great if the bionic users could use it.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1776173] Re: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults
It seems like a solution would be to backport the following patch: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/226881/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776173 Title: qt print dialog shipped with bionic ignores printer defaults Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: All kde applications shipped with ubuntu and particularly kubuntu bionic print via the qt print dialog, that, unfortunately, does not seem to respect the defaults set for the printer. Specifically, every time one starts to print the "duplex" option gets reset to "none" even for those printers that were configured for "long edge" duplex by default. This may lead to a huge *waste of paper*: people print, expecting the duplex, do not get it, throw away the printout and reprint, for a total of 3 times the paper usage if the print dialog respected the default.
