Manual duplexing on HP CLJ 2500N not working...

The printout in CUPS looks like this:

Description: HP Color LaserJet 2500N - Duplex
Location: Datacentral
Driver: HP Color LaserJet 2500 Foomatic/pxlcolor (color, 2-sided printing)
Connection: socket://192.168.0.250:9100
Defaults: job-sheets=none, none media=iso_a4_210x297mm sides=two-sided-long-edge


When I try to print from Windows with "HP Color LaserJet 2500 PCL 6"-driver with "print on backside" checked, the printout comes on two papers.
The printer only supports manual duplexing, so it prints odd pages, then I take the pill of papers ad put in the manual tray and press a button on the printer to continue print even pages.
I use Zentyal (a Ubuntu-based Small Business Server-release), where CUPS is included in the Web-GUI. I have not tryed HPLIP...

Does not CUPS support manual printing or is this a driver issue?
