right - you don't need the '-o sides=....' option as that's just for
printers that support duplex units (my mistake). The '-o
HPManualDuplex=1' option I think should put something like ....
<< /PrintOnBackside true >> setpagedevice
in the output ps to tell the printer to do manual duplex (I think).
Maybe you could try printing to a file and checking that you get that in
the output.

You could try printing to a file on your ms windows box and see what
that puts in the ps out (assuming the driver is outputting ps).
