2013-05-27 16:51:36 Till Kamppeter summary Footmatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON Foomatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON
2013-05-27 16:53:07 Till Kamppeter description I have a Brother HL-2270DW laser printer and I'm using Generic PCL drivers since the official drivers by Brother suffer from issues in managing print margins. Footmatic/ljet4d and Footmatic/ljet4 have good printing quality and they handle the print margins correctly but Footmatic/ljet4d has duplex printing always ON regardless of the option "Double sided-printing", on the contrary Footmatic/ljet4 has the duplex always OFF. Using CUPS web interface to set duplex doesn't help. At the moment I'm using both drivers, one for duplex printing and the other for plain printing. Following directions in Debugging Printing Problems, I've enabled "Save debugging information for troubleshooting" but I have not captured any print jobs because in this case it would be useless. I have just printed a text file with duplex=OFF (Footmatic/ljet4d) but the printer peformed a duplex print.
