[Desktop-packages] [Bug 861493] Re: evince doesn't print duplex on duplex-able printers

2018-06-20 Thread Peter Flynn
Yes, this is still a bug, and still unfixed. My new HP duplex printer works fine from lpr on the command line with the right options for double-sided, and qpdfview can also print both sides, but because the printer default for duplex is Off, Evince's drop-down is stuck on One- Sided and refuses to
