Duplex Printing

[neffann]

Without too much help from the docs.sun.com, and some search within this site, and some others, I'm still puzzled on how to send a document to print on two sides (duplex printing). Any clues? Does LP foot the bill with the -y parameter (mode) (like -y duplex)?

Thanks, all!

Duplex printing -- lp with the -o "duplex" is the option to use? Thanks. - Ann

I gave this advice to a co-worker of mine, and -oduplex was correct.

Turns out the co-worker had his printer set for duplex. Take duplex off, and -o "duplex" does not work. Back to square one, which is: printer control -- make printer change modes, like landscape, duplex, etc., from its default settings, without going into the print control panel.
