I see this bug is still marked as need info. Peter Russel seems to
describe the issue clearly, and I also just ran into the same issue
trying to print a long document using pages per sheet = 2. I want to
print on both sides of the paper using a printer that doesn't support
duplex printing.

Using the definitions as:

Page: logical page as defined in the document
Sheet: physical piece of paper as loaded in the printer

If I have an 8 page document that I want to print using 2 sheets, I
want:

Pages per sheet": 2

Then selecting

+ "Pages per sheet": 2
+ "Only print": "Odd sheets"

I expect page 1 & page 2 to be printed on sheet 1, page 5 & 6 to be
printed on sheet2.  Now I turn the sheets upside down and reload them in
the printer, and select:

+ "Pages per sheet": 2
+ "Only print": "Even sheets"

I expect page 3&4 on sheet 1 and page 7&8 on sheet 2.

Is there anything else that can be clarified?

Please, I don't want rumours that Ubuntu users needlessly kill trees
because of deficient two-sided printing support to start spreading ;-)

Regards
Neilen
