Package: cups-client
Version: 1.3.8-1lenny4
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/lp
When printing a large number of documents and wanting to manually
duplex the output, it would be useful if lp/cups could help me by
always printing an even number of pages for each document, i.e.
printing an empty page after each document with an odd number of
pages.

Times have moved on.
>From cups-filters (1.0.55-1):
* New upstream release:
- pdftopdf: Fixed manual duplex by adding a blank page to even
pages if the total number of pages of the document is
odd. Otherwise the last page of the document would stay in
the input tray. This fixes also a side effect as the set of
even pages reducing to a zero page job if the job consists
of only one page, making Poppler's pdftops error out
(LP: #1340435)
For raw queues or PostScript sent to a PostScript printer (when pdftopdf
is not used) Tea4CUPS can handle sending a form field command to the
printer to insert the blank page.
Regards,
Brian.
