I like it. I think this is your cue. (Need bugzilla advice?)

This might be a good time to add other printer info enhancement
requests, too, should other details be needed.


Yes, I am not sufficiently clear about the degree to which printer driver APIs are standardized: clearly the page size (and, I trust, the available margins) are accessible in a standard way, but as to the degree of standardization of other parameters like the number of copies chosen, the bin or cassette for paper feeding, duplex or not, scaling chosen, choices about colour and resolution etc, personally I have no clue - so it will be up to others to suggest stuff if they have a knowledge of what is feasible. I should emphasise that I'm not expecting miracles, only access to data that appears from an outsider's perspective to be part of standard APIs.

I will add my bugzilla stuff later in the week when I'm back on dear old broadband. I feel fairly OK about this (thanks to Ken Ray's RevZilla) - the only thing that's bothered me in the past is the way you add some further remarks to an existing entry, which AFAIR is somewhat counterintuitive.
