Same problem with a Canon Mx880 except it affect also LibreOffice (so should be related to cups for me). In LibreOffice I can see all options about Duplex printing, but Long Edge doesn't work.

The options are there in the print dialogue, but they don't do anything: Instead of printing on both sides of a page, it only prints on one side. Strangely, with Acrobat Reader and Libre Office, the duplexer works, so this is clearly a problem of Evince. Reinstallation of Evince didn't solve the problem. My system: Ubuntu 12.04.1 HP Lip 3.12.11 Evince 3.4.0 HP Laser Jet 1536dnf MFP, connected via USB Dell Inspiron 1501 hp-check -t gives: No Errors or Warnings HP lip device manager, print settings, general, two-sided is set on long-edge binding. Now that I realised that it's not an issue of the printer- installation, the problem is not that pressing, since I can print simply using Acrobat Reader. However, it would be much better if the standard (and open source) program for pdf-viewing simply worked. A similar report: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1559708 This is not the same bug, since he can't print duplex with Open Office, either: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/613035 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1110888/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
