Description: The Password option in the printer's "Properties..." dialogue always gets set back to None, even if I have the custom (such as:1234, 12345678 etc.) inputted. Other settings (User Code, User ID etc) have the same problem. All problematic options are settings that allow the user to manually enter. But when I choose fixed options，it seems work fine. The printer is a Ricoh SP C840DN (Please download the driver from the following URL: http://www.openprinting.org/ppd-o-matic.php?driver=PDF-Ricoh&printer=Ricoh-SP_C840DN&show=0), used as a network printer. It was installed through CUPS page(localhost:631). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install the following Ricoh driver with CUPS(localhost:631), and print to file http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Ricoh/Ricoh-SP_8400DN 2. Open a document with LibreOffice 3. Click "File -> Print", and open the Printing's dialogue 4. Click "Properties...", and open the printer's properties dialogue 5. Click "Device" tab, then select "Locked Print" in JobType option 6. Click "custom" in Password option, and input "12345678" on Current value textbox 7. Print the document, and check your prn file Actual Results: The following command is not output in prn file. @PJL SET JOBPASSWORD2="12345678" Expected Results: The following command is output in prn file. @PJL SET JOBPASSWORD2="12345678" Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: 1. OS Information: OS:Ubuntu 18.04LTS, OpenSUSE Leap 15.0, CentOS 7.6 2. This issue does not occurs on other apps (gedit, firefox etc).
@Caolán, I thought you might be interested in this issue...
A new major release of LibreOffice is available since this bug was reported. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
At a quick glance at /var/log/cups/error_log with a dummy printer set up with the mentioned PPD file that prints to a file: LO passes this option in 'argv[5]': "Password=12345678" while when printing with e.g. Firefox, this is: "Password=Custom.12345678"
Still reproducible with Version: 6.4.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: eeae2032476e8c8645ab438fbb379f3151c8e472 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.2; UI render: default; VCL: kf5; Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded I'm taking a look.
Created attachment 155823 [details] PPD file used attaching the PPD file to make sure it remains available, even if the link should stop working at some point in time
Pending fix at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/82722/ . Since I don't have the printer in question, I tested by "printing to a file" and checking that the PJL commands are present there as mentioned in the bug description.
