As a workaround I could set up a second printer with the setting 2 pages per sheet. But this doesn't answers why LibreOffice can't do it by itself - or even why LibreOffice sends a PDF-File to cups - or how to setup up LibreOffice to send a PS-File to cups as default. Mysterious... ;)

Hi :) When you choose File - Print do you get a dialogue-box that gives various options?  Is one of the options double-sided or two sided?  Ok, that's a bit obvious but obvious things get missed sometimes while looking for a more complicated answer. In the print dialogue-box do you have an

Hi, No, I haven't a dialog-box for double-sided or two sided. The Options for double sided printing (duplex) is set through the properties of the printer. The Problem is not duplex but Pages per Sheet (don't know if this is correct labeling, my gui is in german: Seiten pro Blatt in Page Layout

Hi, I mean to print two pages side by side. The problem is if I print two pages side by side the printer hangs - with libreoffice only. Not with evince (gnome pdf viewer) for example. If I switch the printer language from pdf to ps everything works fine... But I don't want to do it for every

I do not know about why PDF is set as the default for that printer. I never saw an HP printer use PDF as a default language for the printer. Did you download and install the HP drivers for Linux? Here is the link to the site. http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html I have two HP

Sorry, I just say the Device option tap showing PDF as the default. I do not know what PDF means in this context, since my printers may have that as a printer language type, as far as I remember. My HP Inkjet is not a postscript printer, but my Color Laser might be able to deal with that.
