Thanks Till, The fix did not work on the Ricoh Aficio 2060 (PPDs from Ubuntu's openprinting-ppds-extra package) or the Brother HL4050CDN (Foomatic/Postscript). Also I lost graphics on a trial pdf. So I reverted back to the original script. The other drivers from open printing repository either refused to print or were no better. The Brother HL4050CDN CUPS/LPR driver downloaded from Brother works flawlessly.
For your information I am in Japan and the Ricoh printer models have different names. For example the 2060 is a Neo 602. However they all worked in Hardy so this shouldn't be the problem. Some good news, with the ubuntu MPC-3000 postscript driver and the duplexing works but it freezes the printer on random jobs (as does the 2060). I am unsure why you suspect the pdftops script as duplexing is broken with all documents (open office, firefox, thunderbird, etc) not just PDF files. Sorry for the confused story but I really don't know what's up. I feel that the printer freezing on random jobs and the inability to duplex since the upgrade to Intrepid (also the same on a fresh install) are somehow related. But I have been wrong in the past :). ** Attachment added: "error_log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20117871/error_log -- Cannot print duplex in intrepid with Ricoh Aficio 2060, Ricoh Aficio MPC3000 or Brother HL-4050cdn using the openprinting drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299918 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
