That works correctly, but the printer also prints a blank page after each copy. > Set up a queue with the manufacturer-supplied PPD. Does this work? That works as expected. I guess I will try to get the CUPS server maintainers to update their PPDs to more correct ones. I don't claim to understand very much about CUPS or printing, but it still seems like a bug to me that using a more generic PPD will result in duplexing multiple copies together. I would expect that the worst it should cause is CUPS doing the copies itself, rather than having the printer do it. -- "Copies" and "Two-sided" options interact incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/325436 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
