Bug ID: 152954
Summary: Default Printer not recognised
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.7.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: soft.tea9...@fastmail.com
Description:
Issue with Ubuntu MATE 22.04 LTS - fully up to date. [Kernel: 5.15.0.57]
Default printer set in OS settings not recognised by Libre Office - writer, and
Calc - but I suspect all of the LO suite.
Libre Office always chooses printer at top of alpha-numeric list.
What ever settings for printer I make via CUPs [2.4.1], or Admin panel, etc, it
always reverts to non-default printer, ie. the top listed alpha-numerically.
See below:
[1. HP Deskjet360 - WiFi]
[2. Kyocera P2040DN - Ethernet System Default Printer]
Steps to Reproduce:
1.File/Print from menu bar at the top.
2.Default printer not selected, it's always the first in alpha-numeric list
3.Select (default) printer via drop-down box - for me it's the second choice.
4.Prints with selected printer.
Actual Results:
Default printer not recognised and not selected by default choice. Instead
Libre Office selects printer from top of alpha-numeric list.
Expected Results:
Expect Libre Office to automatically choose the system default printer.
Reproducible: Always
All other programs/applications behave as they should in regards to printer
selection of default.
Computer is connected via Ethernet to LAN.
Both printers have IP addresses assigned via MAC address in router.
Thank-you.
