I am using the HP Color LaserJet 3600 with HPLIP 2.8.6 on Ubuntu
Intrepid. Problem is that the duplex orientation is not respected.
Independent if I choose long-edge or short-edge, I get always the duplex
orientation for long-edge-bound (portrait) documents.
The problem is not caused by broken PostScript input nor by a bug in
foomatic-rip, as the Ghostscript command line is reported as follows in
error_log (CUPS in debug mode):
gs -sstdout=%stderr -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE
-sDEVICE=ijs -sIjsServer=hpijs -sDeviceManufacturer="HEWLETT-PACKARD"
-sDeviceModel="hp color LaserJet 3600" -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595
-dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=842 -dDuplex=true -dTumble=true -r600
-sIjsParams=Quality:Quality=2,Quality:ColorMode=2,Quality:MediaType=0,Quality:PenSet=2,PS:MediaPosition=7
-dIjsUseOutputFD -sOutputFile=%stdout -
It contains the "-dTumble=true" which tells the driver to use short-edge
orientation.
I have tested only with the HP Color LaserJet 3600 (PPD of the
proprietary plug-in). Please test also with other printer device
classes.
