[Bug 897723] Re: Setting duplex in the print dialog has no effect for some print drivers

 

I have found some problems in the cpdftocps filter. A fixed version is
attached and this one does duplex on jobs where duplex is set via the
GTK print dialog.

Title:
  Setting duplex in the print dialog has no effect for some print
  drivers

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  This happens for PostScript printers that specify a custom duplex
  option, i.e. not using the standard CUPS option "two-sided".

  A workaround is to always enable duplex in system-config-printer, or
  to add the printer as "Generic PostScript Foomatic" instead of using
  its native PPD.

  I want to investigate this a bit further before reporting an upstream
  bug (thus assigning myself for now).
