Same problem with HP Laser Jet p2055 when I print from evince. Duplex printing works fine when I print from Adobe Reader or Okular.

I could easily set up the printer and the normal operations work without problems. However, I can not use the duplex mode within Evince and OpenOffice. The Print dialog gives me not the opportunity to activate duplex, even though I set it up in the printer settings. The following steps were made: - Printer connected via Ethernet - Add the printer under System-> Administration-> Printing - In the same program I have set the following three settings: - Under "Installable Options" I set "Duplexer Installed" enabled - Under "Printer Options" I set "Media Size" to "A4 Auto Duplex" - Under "Printer Options" I can configure "Double-sides printing" example "Long edge" - A PDF is opened with Evince - Starting printing with STR + P - In "Page Setup" I can only select "One Sided" within the option "Two-sided" - Open Office has been opened - In the OOo printer dialog I can set duplex mode only to "off" Here is a screenshot of the situation. On the left side the printer configuration, on the right the Evince printing dialog. When I use the HPLIP Toolbox (package 'hp-gui') for printing, then the duplex mode works without any problems. The same with the Adobe Reader. Is there a way I can print on both sides with the gnome standard programs?
