I use the hp2200 TDN with foomatic. works fine with duplex and friends.
what is foomatic?
I was very happy with the LPRng - but can't really figure out what is wrong with ifhp-3.5.10 ( or my configuration! ).
Foomatic (from www.linuxprinting.org) is the standard system for integration of printer drivers with spoolers, it is used by every major distro.
Foomatic has a database of currently 1111 printers and near 250 drivers with information about printer capabilities, the driver's GhostScript command lines, and all user-adjustable options, as resolution, quality, paper trays, ...
Foomatic makes it easy to configure every listed printer (and also any native PostScript printer) easily with every spooler. You simply get a PPD file for your printer/driver combo and a universal filter (which works with all known spoolers).
Supported spoolers are CUPS, LPD, GNUlpr, LPRng, PPR, PDQ, CPS, and spooler-less printing is also supported.
Instructions for setting it up with LPRng you find here ("LPD Docs" link in green menu on the left of the front page):
http://www.linuxprinting.org/lpd-doc.html
So you can stay with LPRng.
