[Desktop-packages] [Bug 487695] Re: autoduplex constraints should be dropped
I have now installed HPLIP 3.14.3. This has solved most of my problems (see bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1276801), and my printer now behaves as described in this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/487695 Title: autoduplex constraints should be dropped Status in Common Print Dialog: New Status in HP Linux Imaging and Printing: New Status in “hplip” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “hplip” source package in Maverick: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” source package in Maverick: Fix Released Status in “hplip” source package in Natty: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” source package in Natty: Invalid Bug description: The autoduplex page sizes are a clever way of allowing the application to know in advance exactly where the page margins are when duplexing.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 487695] Re: autoduplex constraints should be dropped
I have problems with lost margins printing to a new OfficeJet 6700 using HPLIP version 3.14.1. Printing the test page on A4 paper during installation of 3.14.1 gave correct results. After installation, I changed the paper size from letter back to A4 and printed a test page. The ruler at the bottom is missing (see bug 1276801 for details and a scanned pdf of the output). There seem to be multiple reports of similar issues. Should these be collected somewhere? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to hplip in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/487695 Title: autoduplex constraints should be dropped Status in Common Print Dialog: New Status in HP Linux Imaging and Printing: New Status in “hplip” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “hplip” source package in Maverick: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” source package in Maverick: Fix Released Status in “hplip” source package in Natty: Fix Released Status in “system-config-printer” source package in Natty: Invalid Bug description: The autoduplex page sizes are a clever way of allowing the application to know in advance exactly where the page margins are when duplexing.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 487695] Re: autoduplex constraints should be dropped
I think the change introduced by Till Kamppeter (make-duplex-page-sizes- default.sh) now has side effects on the regular (not duplex), at least for A4, where normal margins aren't used, and always set to the duplex ones. See Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655106 for more details. I'd suggest improving the solution, or getting rid completely of this make-duplex-page-sizes-default.sh if upstream is now working properly.
