[STR New]

The command "lp file" shows :
request id is HP_Deskjet_3900_USB_1-221 (1 file(s))
And will print the file.

The command "lp -o outputorder=reverse file" shows :
request id is HP_Deskjet_3900_USB_1-222 (1 file(s))
And will not print the file.

The file in the example above is a simple ASCII text file.

On localhost:631 in Jobs, it will show the status 'stopped'.

In /var/log/cups/error_log, for this job it says :
/undefined in N
(/usr/libexec/cups/filter/foomatic-rip) stopped with status 3!

With a LogLevel of debug it will say :

Information :
Kernel 2.6.20 on Gentoo with cups 1.2.8 and hplip 1.6.10
Using an HP Deskjet 3940 with /etc/cups/ppd/HP_Deskjet_3900_USB_1.ppd
/etc/cups/lpoptions do not exist

I didn't try it, but I saw in the manual of this printer that with the
right driver and software of HP, you can go in Advanced Options and set
the Layout Order in Reverse, so it should be possible with this printer to
print in reverse.  Thanks for any help on how to make that work.
