Description
Name: rl43681 Date: 06/21/2004 FULL PRODUCT VERSION : Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta2-b51) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta2-b51, mixed mode, sharing) ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION : Linux poirot.cs.ubc.ca 2.6.6 #12 Tue May 11 14:00:09 PDT 2004 i686 GNU/Linux (but the problem is almost certainly OS independent) EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION : This occurs on both an HP Laserjet 4100dtn, and on an HP Laserjet 5siMX. A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : Duplex printing does not work for the following reason: the postscript file sets the page size on every page (see the calls to setpagedevice in the included [shortened] PS file). This causes the printer to flush the current page, and hence defeats duplex printing. Printing to a file and removing the extra calls to setpagedevice manually does allow the file to print duplex as expected. Printing the same document with 1.4.2 works normally, as the extraneous calls to setpagedevice aren't present. %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%BeginProlog %%EndProlog %%BeginSetup << /NumCopies 1 >> setpagedevice << /Duplex true >> setpagedevice %%EndSetup %%Page: 1 1 << /PageSize [612.0 792.0] /ImagingBBox null /ManualFeed false >> setpagedevice showpage %%Page: 2 2 << /PageSize [612.0 792.0] /ImagingBBox null /ManualFeed false >> setpagedevice showpage %%EOF EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR : EXPECTED - The contents of the HTML document, printed 2-sided. ACTUAL - The contents of the HTML document are printed 1-sided. REPRODUCIBILITY : This bug can be reproduced always. ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ---------- source attached. ---------- END SOURCE ---------- CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND : I don't know of any workaround, other than printing to a file, and manually editing the PostScript code. Release Regression From : 1.4.2 The above release value was the last known release where this bug was known to work. Since then there has been a regression.
