Package: cups
Version: 1.3.9-16
Severity: normal
The pages used to come out in reverse order on the HP PSC 2710 printer
(which is what I want, since the printer prints face up). That
stopped working after an aptitude upgrade a month or two ago (I'm
tracking unstable). Now, with or without the magic line
*DefaultOutputOrder: "reverse"
in /etc/cups/psc.ppd, the pages come out in 'normal' order (first page
first). I've tested it only with printing PDF files.
However, the lp option '-o output-order=reverse' does reverse the
order. e.g. this works fine:
lp -o output-order=reverse -o page-ranges=123-184 book-indexing.pdf
(although it doesn't matter whether the ppd has the DefaultOutputOrder
line).
This problem surprised me because the Debian changelog has this entry:
cups (1.3.9-6) experimental; urgency=low
[ Till Kamppeter ]
* debian/local/filters/cpdftocps: The cpdftocps filter did case-sensitive
checking for CUPS options to keep them away from the pstops filter. CUPS
treats such options case-insensitive, so in some cases CUPS options got
applied twice (LP: #299707).
and I'm using a more recent version cups package (1.3.9-16).
