Start system-config-printer-gui 2. Select the printer (laserjet 2300) 3. Select menu "Test->Duplex test" Actual results: 2 pages printed Expected results: 1 page printed with text on both sides, aka duplex printing :-) Additional info: The printer is configured to use postscript 3.

The same here for an HP 4200dtn, duplex printing is not working. The duplex test prints two pages instead of one. If works if I reinstall the original foomatic version that came with the FC3 release. # rpm -q foomatic foomatic-3.0.2-13.3 The changed Postscript.xml file does not cure the problem for me.
I forgot to mention: after copying the file, please rebuild the queues using this command as root: /usr/sbin/printconf-backend --force-rebuild Does the problem still persist?
Copying the file and calling the rebuild fixes the problem. Thanks!
That solved it for me as well. Great!
