Printer settings are not saved. Bug?

If I go to the print dialog and create printer settings for my Epson, CO9 appears to save them. But if I immediately re-open the print settings, they have reset themselves to my HP LaserJet. How to I get my print settings to stick so that I can print with them?

Does anyone else have this problem?

  In the Capture One print dialog, did you first do the "Page Setup..." AND the "Print Settings..."? You have to do both, since doing only one still leaves the printer as your system default. After setting the printer in both dialogs, the Epson should remain the chosen printer for future print jobs until you quite and re-launch Capture One (at which time you need to go through this again). Note that to dismiss the "Print Settings" dialog you must click the "Print" button. This won't cause it to print, since "Print" really means "OK" in this case. AFAIK, there's no way to set a default printer for Capture One that is different from your system default printer.
  
  I entered a problem report for all this on version 8, but was told that this is normal Mac behavior (clearly not true).

  Yes, I did save the printer in Page Setup...
  
  By my Print Settings... dialog does have Save and not Print as the "OK" button. CO9.
  
  And I agree, falling back to system default is a pain. I need to remember to enter a formal feature request for the ability to save printer templates (printer, printer settings, paper size, paper type, profile, etc.).
