--- Comment #6 from Michael Weghorn <m.weghorn at posteo.de> ---
Is this still an issue with CUPS >= 2.2.7?

I can't recall the details at the moment, but I remember that something has
changed in CUPS that made us drop the idea of doing something similar for the
Qt print dialog, s. https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/225198/ ,
in particular the last comment there:

If this is no longer an issue with current CUPS versions, I suggest to close
this bug as WORKSFORME as well.
