Okay so we'll look into changing ljet4d to only duplex if the options are sent.

I'm hesitant to have one device ljet4 that supports duplexing - I have to think there is a reason ljet4d exists, and a possible explanation is sending PCL duplex commands to some non duplexing printer results in an error. I wish we had better history about why ljet4d was created in the first place.
