I think that enforcement check boxes might be confusing - users might say "well
of course I want it enforced, that's why I selected it in the first place!".

As I see it, the definitive fix would involve providing some kind of utility to
allow the user to easily keep the PPD file synchronized with the actual printer
defaults. Short of that type of (unlikely) large-scale project, I think that
automatically enforcing those values that are likely to get out of sync (e.g.
simplex/duplex, paper tray as you say) might produce the best payback.

Another alternative might be to have a global "ignore PPD defaults" checkbox
which would apply to all PPD settings. This checkbox could include a note below
it that explained that if the printer only worked "properly" with the checkbox
checked, then manual editing of the PPD file to make its defaults match the
printer's defaults is indicated.
