Bug#366775: even worse in libgnomeprint2.2-0 v2.18

Package: libgnomeprint2.2-0
Version: 2.18.0-1
Followup-For: Bug #366775

I installed libgnomeprint* 2.18 from experimental.  The behaviour of
evince now is even worse: it doesn't send the print job to the CUPS
printer at all!

I tried half a dozen different permutations - switching duplex on and
off, setting layout to plain - and only once did evince/libgnomeprint
2.18 actually communicate with the CUPS printer I was printing to.
That is, only once out of six or so attempts did
/var/log/cups/access_log report "Print-Job successful-ok".  The other
times there was simply nothing in cups/access_log  at all, nor in
cups/error_log.

As far as I can tell, the successful print job occurs when I press
"Print" immediately, without going into the configuration dialog box.
Any visit into "Configure" results in no job being sent to the print,
regardless of whether Duplex is selected there or not.

Apart from that fatal problem, the other problems appear to still be
there.  That is, when I first open up the printer configuration,
Duplex is not selected even though the printer is configured
under CUPS to use it by default.
