2) Removed unneeded methods from PrintOptions
3) PrintOption can now read and write (most) all the data in a PrintSettings object. The items not saved are those used during the printing process and it wouldn't make any sense to save them.
4) Adds a prefs for turning on and off the automatic saving of PrintSettings. If this is turned on it is almost the same as using the global PS.
5) On Linux it turns on the saving of PS prefs and turns on the global PS. Meaning it will always use a single Global PS object.
6) The PrintSettings can be initialized from a generic non-printer specific set of prefs. Then if a printer name is available in the PS then it tries
to initialize itself from the printer specific prefs. This enables to define "back stop" prefs for picking up first. Then the printer specific prefs can override those settings. For example, we may define in prefs that the default paper size 8.5x11, then if if the "save PS prefs" is turned on, for a given printer it might save 8.5x16 as the size.
7) A "flags" arg has been added so you can indicate which prefs you want read or written.

was doing the clamping on 50-100%, I have changed the back-end to do no
clamping and the front will now allow values between 10 and 500%, these seem
reasonable.
