------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 26 17:49:21 +0000 2008 ------- Has anyone confirmed that a secondary (network) printer defaulted to duplex actually works? Now, I don't want to turn this into a help thread, but since there is a suggested workaround it should at least be confirmed to work. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. I added a new network printer on my print server. I now have: Name: HP LaserJet 4200 PCL6 Share Name: HP4200_TECH Name: HP LaserJet 4200 PCL6 DUPLEX Share Name: HP4200_DUPLEX Then, I added that "duplex" printer my to machine, setting "Flip on Long Edge" for the default duplex printing option. So, I have the following defined on my computer: HP LaserJet 4200 PCL6 (ie, Default) HP LaserJet 4200 PCL6 DUPLEX Now, when I print, I do the following: Loop for each Writer document: The first time through the loop: PropertyValue[] printerDesc = new PropertyValue[1]; printerDesc[0] = new PropertyValue(); printerDesc[0].Name = "Name"; String printer = "HP LaserJet 4200 PCL6"; xPrintable.setPrinter(printerDesc); xPrintable.print(myPrintOpts); The second time through the loop: PropertyValue[] printerDesc = new PropertyValue[1]; printerDesc[0] = new PropertyValue(); printerDesc[0].Name = "Name"; String printer = "HP LaserJet 4200 PCL6 DUPLEX"; xPrintable.setPrinter(printerDesc); xPrintable.print(myPrintOpts); My problem: The print request for the duplex printer (HP4200_DUPLEX) submits to the simplex printer (HP4200_TECH). Now, the simplex is the default printer, but that shouldn't matter since I'm setting the printer description "Name" property. I'm using v2.4. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
