Bug Description

When printing from evince, if I change "Pages per side" in the "Page Setup" tab and choose any other tab before I actually print, evince forgets the change I made to "Pages per side". I have to click "Print" from the Page Setup tab to have this property take effect. This is hugely annoying and cost me a lot of paper.

Steps to reproduce:
1) open a PDF in evice
2) go to Page Setup tab, choose 4 pages per side (or any number that's not currently used)
3) go back to General page and print

evince will print the number of pages per side that were originally set, not the number chosen in step 2

This would be a lot less annoying if the "Pages per Side" selection were on the "General" tab
