[cups.general] problems with duplex printing

[Michael Sweet]

CUPS does not support "automatic" manual duplexing.

You need to print even and then odd pages.  Alternately you can ask your favorite Linux desktop environment to support it in their UI.

In CUPS, I have set my default options to two-sided long edge, but when I hit print, everything prints out single sided with no pause for flipping.
