           Summary: print dialog does not allow easily to print current
                    page or multipe ranges of pages
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: rfkd at fietze-home.de


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

The old print dialog allowed an easy selection of the current page or a list of
pages and page ranges, e.g. using 1-4,6,8,10-12

The new applet does no longer allow this, which is a big step backwards. The
new print icon is of course Qt-made, but if the Qt dialog offers so much less
(e.g. like still not properly handling duplex) it simply must not be must
unless it offers the requested funtionality, which of course has be not less
than the old version.

I did not mark this bug an enhancement, because if something is missing that
worked before is a (minor) bug.

Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
Have to call the print dialog multiple times. Together with the bug that it
doesn't set up duplex printing properly, this is very cumbersome.

Expected Results:  
Usability at least as KDE3.
