Package: printer-driver-oki
Version: 1.0.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
the "Duplex" option of the printer driver seems to be ignored with my OKI
B401dn printer, e.g. when printing from Libreoffice or Evince.
Apparently, the option *is* passed to the driver script
/usr/lib/cups/filter/rastertookimonochrome. For testing, I added the line
exec > /tmp/OKI_OUT 2> /tmp/OKI_ERR
at the very beginning, which dumps the following into /tmp/OKI_ERR:

On an other (Ubuntu) box, I have a /very/ old Oki PPD (ok400pcl.ppd, Version
1.3, Date 10/15/2008; I don't recall from where I got it) which *does* support
Duplex in combination with the (different) rastertookimonochrome script for the
aforementioned documents. However, the printout margins are wrong there, so I
would prefer to use the official Debian package.
Any idea how I could fix the issue?
Thanks in advance,
Albrecht.
