Has this been addressed since then? I'm still experiencing this issue on 12.04.2 LTS, latest updates with cups. My duplexing option will never stick for any printer (Long Standard), always defaults to Single even after applying/purging cups/reinstalling cups/reinstalling Ubuntu.

For example, if the global system settings is for one-sided printing and the setting chosen in an application e.g. Document Viewer is for two-sided printing, the output is one-sided. To enable duplex printing, this has to be set in global system printing settings. This is true also for color / grayscale settings. Other settings, like 2 pages per side, can be applied in the application print dialog.
