Have you tried using the UNO dispatch interface? This sometimes gives access to functions unavailable via API.

ok, i ended up configuring a second printer with a default setting of
duplex.  The problem with this solution is that when a document queues to
another print spool, the order of printing is not guaranteed.


For instance, if I print the following documents through the API in the
below order:

Document01 - Printer_Simplex
Document02 - Printer_Simplex
Document03 - Printer_Simplex
Document04 - Printer_Simplex
Document05 - Printer_Duplex
Document06 - Printer_Simplex
Document07 - Printer_Simplex

then that's the order I need them to print on the physical device.

However, they end up printing this way:
Document01 - Printer_Simplex
Document02 - Printer_Simplex
Document03 - Printer_Simplex
Document04 - Printer_Simplex
Document06 - Printer_Simplex
Document07 - Printer_Simplex
Document05 - Printer_Duplex


Which is wrong.  Dead wrong.


Is there a way to poll submitted print requests (via open office) in order
to pause processing until the duplexed item has printed?

Perhaps there is a spool setting available in windows where the network
printers are defined.

Forgive my ignorance, but I thought that all print options were Open
Office defined.  PrintRequestAttribute is for Java printing, not Open
Office, right?

So you need Java:

 PrintRequestAttribute examples

   * Sides class
         o Single or two sided printing.
         o Closed enumeration
         o ONE_SIDED
         o TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE
               + Same as DUPLEX
         o TWO_SIDED_SHORT_EDGE
               + Same as TUMBLE
