gnome-cups-manager settings ignored

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported, but feel free to report any other bugs you find.

I can't confirm or deny whether this is a legitimate dupe---I'm not using feisty and an attempt to build the backport of evince/gtk+2.0 failed, so I don't know if the patch for the other bug resolves my problem---but I will note that my problem is not implied by the other bug report. As I understand bug #67164, options chosen in the Print dialog are ignored when the job is sent to the printer. In my case, defaults chosen in gnome-cups-manager are ignored in the Print dialog. If I change the options in the Print dialog, the job will print as desired.

I have upgraded to feisty and I am still having this problem. I do not believe this is really a duplicate of #67164, which is supposedly fixed. My problem is *not* that printer dialog settings are ignored on print; my problem is that the global printer settings in gnome-cups-manager are ignored in the evince Print dialog. I.e., I have to manually select "Double-sided printing: Long Edge (standard)" every time I print; however, when I select it, it does in fact print as double-sided.

The source of the problem seems to be that there are *two* printer configuration managers in Ubuntu/Gnome: the gnome-cups-manager and system-config-printer. I didn't have system-config-printer installed until today. Changing the double-sided print settings in system-config-printer works; changing them in gnome-cups-manager does not. Both utilities are listed in System -> Administration under "Printing".

My package versions are now:

evince 0.8.1-0ubuntu1
gnome-cups-manager 0.31-3ubuntu5
python-cups (1.9.19-0ubuntu1)
system-config-printer (0.7.62-0ubuntu1)

Chris is right. This bug is *not* a duplicate of bug #67164.

For me the specific problem is that evince does not use the default paper tray as set in gnome-cups-manager. The evince print dialog says "printer default", which may be the hardware default, but it sure is not the default set in gnome-cups-manager. Other applications do the right thing and respect that default.

Please set this bug to a different status. It *is* valid.

evince 0.8.1-0ubuntu1
gnome-cups-manager 0.31-3ubuntu5

This bug may be a duplicate of bug #125038.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Removed the duplicate mark.
gnome-cups-manager is no longer maintained upstream.
It has been replaced by system-config-printer in Gutsy Gibbon, the latest Ubuntu development release. I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - the Gutsy Gibbon.
