Angelo;

I think that I see the problem:

I have 2 printers:
a.) A standard office printer for all of my general work .. this is
marked under HP/CUPS as my 'Default' printer.
b.) My hi-colour wide printer that is only used for my photography.

Under many programs (typically Gimp and others) when I start printing I
must initially use FILE > PAGE_SETUP. This establishes my basic printing
parameters for the duration of the session.  .... ie. The print
'default' for the session is established. After that I can use FILE >
PRINT.

With your arrangement however, each time that a print is completed the
program reverts to the HP/CUPS 'Default' settings.

This is not a make or break situation with Digikam but somehow locking
the current session parameters would make the system a little more
friendly.

Thanks;

David
