I'm seeing a similar issue on OpenSuse 11 beta 3+ with Qt 4.4.0. It appears to me to be a Qt bug, I plan to confirm, patch, and file a bug report this weekend.

What I'm seeing is in all apps, even native Qt ones, that when QPrintDialog is displayed that while the first printer/item is selected/displayed in the combo box, the rest of the dialog is set up for the last printer/item, i.e. for the "Print To Postscript" printer, with the filename edit widget enabled.  Clicking OK tries to print to ps file.  Changing to another printer in the combo box fixes the problem.  

With Okular disabling the Print to File options, it half sets the dialog up for the Print To Postscript (so some QList<QPrinterInfo> iterator somewhere not getting reset after populating the combo?) but with the filename edit widget disabled, and printing fails.  If you only have one printer installed you can't switch printers to fix it.
