Update to the latest trunk code - the "simple" way is just:

     svn up
     autoconf -f
     ./configure
     make
     sudo tools/testosx
     open cups.pkg

Anyways...

If I set the job to duplex on the client side, the job prints single sided. I need to force clients to only be able to print duplex jobs.

More than likely the clients are setup with different local preferences.
If you never want to print single-sided, edit the PPD file and remove
the "*Duplex None/..." line...
