--- Comment #21 from Jeremy Sanders <jeremy jeremysanders net>  2010-01-31 17:46:00 ---
I've got an (ugly) patch which fixes some problems. It sets the duplex,
collation and colour options, in new QPrinter objects and when switching
printers in the print dialog, from the default cups ppd settings.

It doesn't do anything with page sizes (is this a problem for some people?),
doesn't tell cups to use the new options as defaults and doesn't propagate cups
options back from the advanced tab of the properies tab. These issues could
probably be fixed.

It could be improved. Maybe the Qt people would decide whether it is a useful
way to advance. I think this code would probably be best moved into
QPrinterInfo, to make it more general, but I'm wary about messing with the API,
especially as Windows versions might need adding.
