[Bug 1390994] Re: Lost ability to print duplex

 

Does your printer have a duplex unit or are you using some kind of
manual duplex mode (print the odd pages, then the paper gets put back
into the input tray and the even pages get printed)?

Can your follow the instructions of the sections "CUPS error_log",
"Capturing print job data", and "Getting the data which would go to the
printer" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems. Can you
also attach the file(s) which you tried to print? Please do this for all
situations with problems (LibreOffice, evince, ...).

Do not pack the obtained file together and do not compress them. Please
attach them one by one. This will make it easier for the readers of this
bug report to handle them.

Title:
  Lost ability to print duplex

Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  A recent update (about a week or two ago) has resulted in my HP 8600
  printer no longer printing double-sided.  All the configuration
  information appears to be unchanged, but pages are not printed double-
  sided, when requested.  The duplexer works properly in local mode.

  My configuration is:  Ubuntu 14.04 (up-to-date), HP Pavilion dv6 with
  AMD quad-core processor.  I have been running Ubuntu on this machine
  for about 27 months.  I successfully upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 last
  summer.  The 8600 printer has been in use for about two years.
