Not Printing in Duplex mode from HP-UX 10.20

[Sajith Mannadiar]

Hi,

We have a Laserjet 5M printer with 6MB RAM configured thru Jetdirect Interface
and it is connected to Unix
workstations running HP-UX 10.20.

Whenever we print a postscript file from UNIX the printer does not print in
DUPLEX. even though the
printer's control panel says DUPLEX=ON.

Any text file printed from Unix prints in Duplex mode.

When we took out a post-script configuration page from the printer, it said
'Duplex=off' for the postscript.

We are unable to change this option to "Duplex=ON".

TO Summarise:

Hardware : Laserjet 5M & HP 9000 workstations
Software : HP-UX 10.20 & Jetadmin
Problem : Postscript documents are not prtg in Duplex mode (Any
printout taken from Netscape/Frame
Maker/Acrobat reader etc.)
What we found so far: Duplex=off in the postscript configuration

Any help on this is highly appreciated.


Thanks in advance.

Regards
Sajith

It sounds like the problem is definitely on the printer configuration side, not
the HPUX side. Try asking in the Printing & Imaging forum :)
