However, OOoffice uses CUPS and will duplex. If you see my subsequent post, you will see I am (also) having problems just getting gedit to print (duplex or no). I have carefully gone through gedit preferences and gconf. There does not seem to be anything to change. The printer is listed correctly etc. Gedit does, in fact, give me the duplex option which I suspect it wouldn't if it wasn't available, but nonetheless nothing prints. I hate to say this but I feel like I am operating in a WindowsXP environment where "daddy knows best" and I am given no configuration or tweaking room. Frustratingly, I don't know where to start. Regards Bill
