Bug Description

The hpcups.drv description ought to provide constraints that prevent duplex printing to printers that do not have a duplex unit fitted.

It looks like there are lines to do just that, but they are commented out:

  //UIConstraints "*Duplex *OptionDuplex False"

Why are they commented out?

This is a problem because printing duplex to a non-duplex printer can cause it to react badly:
