I assume that you are using an Xwindows system and have a web browser
installed. Try http://localhost:631/ to pull up the Cups aministration
page. Set your printer defaults there and lp will follow. I find lp too
arcane for my tastes being lazy. At the main page select: Add printer
classes>manage printers>Click on que name for your
printer>Administration>Set default options. I would suggest setting
draft mode and draft resolution as well as long edge. Your lp or lpr
printing will use these defaults. This is much easier that messing
around with the command line and stays set.

Amongst two printers, I've got an Hp Deskjet 990Cxi, and I use
`CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2' as a driver for this printer. I would like to
print both sides, e.g. using long edge mode (standard). The problem is
that this seems not to be communicated to the printer, despite of the
invokated command:

lpr -P Deskjet -o Resolution=300dpi -o PageSize=Letter -o Duplex=DuplexNoTumble
