  Additional Closure Information:
  Incident Diagnosis:
  The default value of the printing parameter is incorrect
  Restriction Explanation:
  The behavior shown in V5R18 was incorrect and was modified to
  provide correction in BR10000062371.
  There cannot be different default parameter following the
  type of document without bringing bug for CAA uses.
  The new documentation specifies the correct and the current
  behavior:
  Documentation : Basic Task / Printing Documents / Customizing
  Print Settings :
  "Whenever the Print dialog opens, default printing parameters
  are loaded. These default printing parameters are updated
  when pressing OK or Apply. For instance, if you select Whole
  document for the print area then click OK, next time you open
  the Print dialog box, Whole document will be selected in the
  Print Area list."
