More info: I still cannot print 2 pages / sheet with evince so I installed epdfview-0.1.8-3ubuntu1 and 2-sided printing is working with epdfview.
There is definitely a problem with evince, not cups! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1076347 Title: two-sided printing not working on my pc, no problem on another one. Status in “cups” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am trying to print a pdf file, 2 pages per sheet (two-sided printing). After opening the Print dialog, I go in tab "Page Setup", then select "Long Edge (standard)" for option "Two-sided" but I always get 1 page printed per sheet. Same problem with ps and dvi files. On another pc, I do the same but this time I get 2 pages per sheet (which I want). Also, my home directory is located on a server and exported to those 2 pcs (nfs mounted). So that printing problem is not related to some config file in my home directory. And I use only one printer (cups driven). Regards, F.
