It seems the problem is not to "always default to lowest setting" but to remember the Print Settings in File\Print... after the last printed file.
I still do think it's a bug, because Evince should, by default, print any file with the default specified resolution in System\Administration\Printing. My argument is that most often, you want your printouts to look the best they can (or the way you intended them to look by default by configuring your printer accordingly in cups). If you need something special, like to print in low resolution (draft), then you should need to set it in evince print dialog every time. The way it is now you always need to go into the various Evince's print settings just to be sure that some option isn't still active (say, 300 DPI instead of 600 DPI). This mostly annoying, specifically when you've just print 50 pages and notice it was stuck on a bad setting. On a side note, why was this bug moved to CUPS? I was under the impression that it was Evince specific. For example, Acrobat Reader 9 always set the print resolution to my default 600 DPI, whether or not I changed it to 300 DPI in Reader's print settings the last time I used it. ** Description changed: Binary package hint: evince 1) Ubuntu 9.10 karmic amd64 2) evince version : 2.27.90-0ubuntu8 3) When I open a document with evince and go to File\Print\Image Quality, I expect evince to have the default value defined in my CUPS configuration (System\Administration\Printing -> Printer Options). - 4) Instead of using the aforementioned value (600 DPI, in my case), evince always defaults to my printer lowest setting, 300 DPI. + 4) If I had set the print resolution to 300 DPI the last time I used Evince, it will still be 300 DPI in File\Print\Image Quality, and not the default 600 DPI defined in System\Administration\Printing -> Printer Options. -- Evince does not respect the printer's default resolution defined in System\Administration\Printing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
