Are you serious? It's been nearly 8 years and this crap still hasn't
been solved. Have you ever printed 20 pages in multiple sets? I did,
with my F370, and then I had to reorder them manually every single time.

This is why the Linux userspace will never take over the desktop--
stubborn developers who get in the way of convenience. How is the
default behaviour faster? Because it shaves off the few picoseconds it
takes the program to reverse an array?

Title:
  DeskJet 3740 (and probably many others) should print in reverse

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: hplip-ppds

  i got a deskjet 3740 for super-cheap at staples.  it works great with
  ubuntu except for two problems.

  the problem for this bug is that when paper comes out of my printer it
  comes out with the printed side facing up.  the paper then drops onto
  the tray.

  this means that if pages come out of my printer 1 2 3 4 they will go
  onto the tray in order 1 2 3 4.  when i pick them up, page 4 is on
  top.

  there is an option in PPD files specifically designed to deal with
  this.  this option is documented in the CUPS FAQ here:

  http://www.linuxprinting.org/cups-faq.html#q_1_7

  It says:

  1.7 How do I print pages always in reverse order?

      In the PPD:
      *DefaultOutputOrder: "reverse"
      See:
