Prints whole file instead of selected page(s)

[Terrance]

Print, select "Pages" to "1" to print page 1 only, results printing whole file.

addition info:
Printing "Current pages" works fine.

Hello Terrance,

thank you for taking the time to report this. We did have that bug of overwriting the "page-ranges" CUPS option that Qt's print dialog sets (after it acquired that functionality recently) but it should be fixed since November 2018:

  Do not overwrite page-ranges CUPS option when it was already set by Qt's print dialog.

Can you make sure that you are using a build based on at least trunk revision 2086? Can you reproduce this when building from source or using the dailydeb from [1]? (I tried it locally running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and failed to reproduce the issue using the current trunk.)

Best regards,
Adam

I had the same problem with the version distributed with Lubuntu 19.04. But when I upgraded as described above, to 0.4.17.99~2090~63~ubuntu19.04.1, which seems to give "qpdfview 0.4.18beta1" in the "About" window, the problem went away.

I also have the same problem with qpdfview 0.4.18beta1.
I tried different printers with same result.

@kike Could you also give the dailydebs a try? My guess that the distributions have started packaging snapshots since I have a hard time actually getting a release out the door...

@AdamReichold I've installed https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qpdfview-bzr/ and it looks it is printing as expected.
Thank you!
