Hi,

I'm not able to use our new NRG DSC435PS workgroup printer in duplex mode for PDF files. I can print from firefox (linux) in duplex and successfully from Windows XP too. The IT department that is responsible for Windows is using an other printing system, not cups.

I tried to print the PDF's from acroread/gtklp/kpdf.

Some more info:

debian stable/sarge with cups packages from unstable (I tried the stable verion 1.1.23-10sarge1 first - without success).
