Bug#508284: [evince] Too many printing options stored

[Torsten Marek]

Package: evince
Version: 2.24.1-1
Severity: minor

Evince stores all kind of printing configuration data between two invocations. While for
some settings, this may be desirable, for others I find it highly obnoxious.

If I happen to print out a scientific paper, I use 2 sides per page, duplex. However, if after
that I quickly want to print out a ticket that needs to go on a single A4 page, evince 
still uses the 2 sides per page setting, and I have just wasted a page and some toner.

I think that some settings, like duplex and 2 sides per page should not be stored as 
application-wide defaults, but rather on a per-document level, if at all.
