[Bug 1184665] Re: Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON, short-edge duplex not available at all
yes this printer might have PCL issues, however I've just installed UNIV-PCL-0110, the PCL drivers supplied by Brother, on Windows Seven and I can confirm that short-edge duplex printing works like magic in Windows so at the moment I can print with ljet4 (simplex) and with ljet4d for duplex long-edge, if I need short-edge duplex I have to use the Brother driver but by printing from a .ps file to avoid incorrect margins as I've reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1184663 and what about that bug? I think it should be fixable, does it depend on poppler? is it related to the following old bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/poppler/+bug/293832 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1184665 Title: Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON, short-edge duplex not available at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gs-gpl/+bug/1184665/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

finally I succeeded in short-edge duplex printing even with ubuntu, I used foomatic/hpijs-pcl5e but the good news isn't over because this driver/ppd handles printing margins correctly and it isn't scared by thin horizontal lines ** Attachment added: error_log https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/foomatic-db/+bug/1184665/+attachment/3692173/+files/error_log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1184665 Title: Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON, short-edge duplex not available at all To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gs-gpl/+bug/1184665/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Florenzo, the Ghostscript developers told me that your printer also supports PCL-XL, so try to set it up with Foomatic/pxlmono (use the Generic PCL-6/XL printer if your model does not have the Foomatic/pxlmono choice).

Can you somehow generate PCL 5e which makes the printer printing duplex short-edge, for example from the Windows driver )printing into a file)? If so, please attach this PCL output.

[Bug 1184665] Re: Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON
The problem of ljet4 alwyas giving one-sided printing and ljet4d always giving duplex printing can be easily solved in Foomatic, but the problem should also get fixed in Ghostscript so that standard PostScript methods for using duplex get working. Can you try the ljet4d driver and there select the long-edge and short- edge versions of duplex printing. Does this at least correctly work? ** Summary changed: - Footmatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON + Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON ** Description changed: I have a Brother HL-2270DW laser printer and I'm using Generic PCL drivers since the official drivers by Brother suffer from issues in managing print margins. - Footmatic/ljet4d and Footmatic/ljet4 have good printing quality and they - handle the print margins correctly but Footmatic/ljet4d has duplex + Foomatic/ljet4d and Foomatic/ljet4 have good printing quality and they + handle the print margins correctly but Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON regardless of the option Double sided-printing, on - the contrary Footmatic/ljet4 has the duplex always OFF. + the contrary Foomatic/ljet4 has the duplex always OFF.
