Public bug reported: This happens for PostScript printers that specify a custom duplex option, i.e. not using the standard CUPS option "two-sided".
A workaround is to always enable duplex in system-config-printer, or to add the printer as "Generic PostScript Foomatic" instead of using its native PPD. I want to investigate this a bit further before reporting an upstream bug (thus assigning myself for now). ** Affects: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Lars Uebernickel (larsu) Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Lars Uebernickel (larsu) ** Changed in: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897723 Title: Setting duplex in the print dialog has no effect for some print drivers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/897723/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
