Oliver, 
You're right about standards, I agree with you, but my point wasn't that, my 
point is why nobody from qt devels tried to fix such important bug ?
IMO, this is not low-prio issue and doesn't look good when qt usage is 
questionable on one platform because of it.
Printing is basic thing which should work w/o such problems.
