Public bug reported:
- Open a document in qpdfview
- Go to File/Print
- Click on the "Options" button
- Select the "Options" tab
- Under "Color Mode" make sure "Color" is selected (as opposed to "Grayscale"),
which it is by default
- Print
Expected: should print in color (if the printer is capable of that, of
course)
Observed: it may print in Grayscale if that's the printer's
current/default setting.
In fact, if you click on the "Properties" button next to the selected
printer, a window pops up with printer properties, and there is an
"Advaced" tab. In that tab, there are several printer settings whose
value are listed but you CANNOT CHANGE. I guess the exact set of
settings may depend on the printer. In my case there's a "Print Quality"
setting whose default value is "Draft Grayscale". In ALL other software,
when opening the printer settings, I would be allowed to change this
setting and select for example "Normal Color" or "Draft Color". Here I
cannot change the current setting which is Draft Grayscale despite
having selected Color in qpdfview's own settings.
