Description of problem: When adding a printer, "Letter" is used for the default page size but I use A4 paper. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): control-center-2.91.93-1.fc15.x86_64 gnome-settings-daemon-2.91.93-1.fc15.x86_64 cups-1.4.6-12.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.Plug in a printer for which there is an exact driver match e.g. HP PSC 2210 2.Print something to it using the default settings, e.g. with: lp /usr/share/cups/data/testprint Actual results: Wrong output due to incorrect page size. Expected results: Printer should be set up using A4 page size when in an A4-using locale. Additional info: In the System Settings application, I have these regional settings: Region and Language: Language: English (United Kingdom) Layouts: English (UK) CUPS will adjust the page size of new queues according to the system locale. My system locale is wrong: # cat /etc/sysconfig/i18n LANG="en_US.UTF-8" SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16" but there seems to be no way to change it from System Settings. My own user locale is correct: $ locale LANG=en_GB.utf8 LC_CTYPE="en_GB.utf8" LC_NUMERIC="en_GB.utf8" LC_TIME="en_GB.utf8" LC_COLLATE="en_GB.utf8" LC_MONETARY="en_GB.utf8" LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.utf8" LC_PAPER="en_GB.utf8" LC_NAME="en_GB.utf8" LC_ADDRESS="en_GB.utf8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_GB.utf8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_GB.utf8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_GB.utf8" LC_ALL=
NOT fixed in control-center-3.0.1.1-5.fc15.x86_64. Happens with both automatic configuration (i.e. plug in printer), and with user interaction (i.e. System Settings -> Printers -> +).
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
