Understand that when a printer is set to Manual feed,
it is done in the driver (software), so while Winduhs
may work fine (set properly in the driver), Linux may
not.  Manual feed is exactly what you describe.

When you print something and you get the pop-up
dialog, somewhere may be a setting for Manual Feed or
Automatic, perhaps under the Driver tab.  Or maybe
it's Paper Source.  If nothing there, then the Manual
setting is buried deep in the /etc/cups/ppd/*.ppd
driver, and it is way beyond my knowledge.

My problem is different, and judging from the
perplexity it has caused on this mailing list, must be
New ScienceĀ®.  I can print a multiple-page document
fine, but never, never more than one -copy- at a time.
 This is inconvenient when I have 1,500 copies to do.

No one can even suggest a different print server for me.
