linux reverse page order+duplex is not working
hi all,

i have a postscript file with duplex print commands. When i print it with
lpr command it prints in duplex.

lpr -pprintername filename.ps

but when i try to print the pages in reverse order with -outputorder=reverse
it is not printing in reverse order (but pages are prited in duplex since PS file has duplex commands)

lpr -pprintername -o outputorder=reverse filename.ps

again i tried to print a postscript file without duplex commands and with outputorder=reverse option. Now pages are printed in reverse order.

So the problem is whenever the PS file has duplex commands outputorder=reverse option doesnt work for me.

Kindly suggest me a solution .....


Thanks and Regards,
uttam hoode

lpr-cups

lpr(1)							      Easy Software Products							    lpr(1)

NAME

       lpr - print files

SYNOPSIS

       lpr [ -E ] [ -P destination ] [ -# num-copies [ -l ] [ -o option ] [ -p] [ -r ] [ -C/J/T title ] [ file(s) ]

DESCRIPTION

       lpr submits files for printing. Files named on the command line are sent to the named printer (or the system default destination if no des-
       tination is specified). If no files are listed on the command-line lpr reads the print file from the standard input.

OPTIONS

       The following options are recognized by lpr:

       -E
	    Forces encryption when connecting to the server.

       -P destination
	    Prints files to the named printer.

       -# copies
	    Sets the number of copies to print from 1 to 100.

       -C name
	    Sets the job name.

       -J name
	    Sets the job name.

       -T name
	    Sets the job name.

       -l
	    Specifies that the print file is already formatted for the destination and should be sent without filtering. This option is equivalent
	    to "-oraw".

       -o option
	    Sets a job option.

       -p
	    Specifies  that the print file should be formatted with a shaded header with the date, time, job name, and page number. This option is
	    equivalent to "-oprettyprint" and is only useful when printing text files.

       -r
	    Specifies that the named print files should be deleted after printing them.

COMPATIBILITY

       The "c", "d", "f", "g", "i", "m", "n", "t", "v", and "w" options are not supported by CUPS and will produce a warning message if used.
