Yes, this is a bug:

My OKI 331dn now installs with duplex defaulting to off. Problem is,
when that's the case, the printer dialog can't be set to duplex on--it's
greyed-out.

If I change the default to duplex on, then the user can change the
setting.

Setting the default behavior to simplex shouldn't eliminate user choice;
but it does.

Title:
  evince doesn't print duplex on duplex-able printers

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a postscript-printer, which can print on both sides of the
  paper (duplex). When I print a file with "lpr -Pduplex file.pdf",
  everything is o.k., when I do that in evince (selecting printer
  duplex), it prints every page on a single sheet, so it acts not the
  same as lpr does. This happens with Ubuntu 10.04.3. evince is in
  2.30.3-0ubuntu1.2.
