I just reported a similar bug for 12.04 LTS, tagged 1081065 I confirm the above for my Epson printer. Any file does not print in duplex (tested both pdf and office). The duplex option just is not selectable (either greyed-out or auto-resets to single page). 10.04 LTS gave no problems.
Since it is more printer brands and was not a problem on 10.04 I suspect it is not the printer brands drivers but Ubuntu that causes the flaw.
