I have problem with 'manual duplex' printing on my HP CP1514n in Ubuntu.
In 10.04 I select the double sided print option (print long edge). Print is now simplex printing which is wrong.
In 10.10beta there is a new option checkbox : Duplexer installed. I don't have a duplexer attached to my printer. If I deselect this option, I cannot select double sided printing any more.
What to do?
I want first to print the even pages, then place the printed stack even pages in the printer tray.
When I Acknowledge with the OK printer button, the printer shall print the odd pages in the correct order on the opposite side of the even pages.
This works perfectly in Windows. Ubuntu (Linux) must have the same functionality!
I believe a lot of people have the same problem!

Use Gnome Manual Duplex - https://sourceforge.net/projects/g-manual-duplex/

Brother 2170W printer fails to duplex print with Ubuntu 10.10. The same printer does do duplex printing using Win XP. The duplex printing mode worked fine with Ubuntu 10.04. Using the gnome-manual-duplex program made the printer go wild. Does anyone have a good solution for this problem?

Bump.

I concur. Duplexing worked prior to last upgrade.
