The issue is that this is a networked printer, it's printed to not just
from Linux boxes, but also Windows, etc...  not all applications
support back-to-front printing when not printing from the command
line with "lp"...  And I want it to be a defaulted server-side setting
on the printer's directly attached host (so that it gets done whether
the printing client specifies it or not).
