This is (IMHO) incorrect behavior! Print settings are DOCUMENT
specific, not application specific so that maintaining the values globally
during the run of the application is the wrong thing to do. The proper
thing would be to add new top level document properties to each document
and use those at print time AND save them into the document for later
restoration.
