Bug information
Steps to reproduce
- Step by step, how can you make the problem appear?
- List those steps here.
- If the problem doesn't happen every time, note that as well. With the vmware horizon printerRedirection feature, use gnome-text-editor open a text file and try to print it, in the printing dialog, modified the option WatermarkText from original "Input_Text_Here" to a specific text string like "abcdef", and then click print buttton, the watermark showed on the printed out doc is "Input_Text_Here" but not the expected "abcdef". From the cups log, we can see gnome-text-editor send the option WatermarkText with the unexpected value "Input_Text_Here" to cups. I also printed the same doc and make the same setting in print dialog with gedit(manually installed gedit on ubuntu24.04), it works fine. firefox can also works correct in the same case. I Used evince to print a pdf doc with the watermark option set , it also works fine.
Note that Feature Requests should first be filed at Teams/Design/Whiteboards to start the design process.
Current behaviour
What happened that made it evident there was a problem? Copy and paste the exact text of any error messages. Use code blocks (```) to format them.
From the cups' log, we can see gnome-text-editor send the option WatermarkText with the unexpected value "Input_Text_Here" to cups.

Expected behaviour
What did you expect to see instead? I expected gnome-text-editor can send the print option WatermarkText with configured value "abcdef" to cups just like gedit.
