Well, if you happen to be using LPRng (you aren't by default), it's as
simple as
lpr -Z feature=2
or whatever other feature setting you might want. The default lp system
supplied with SuSE doesn't support this -Z switch (and if what you have is
working, I'll be the last to suggest changing it for one whizzy feature).
You could also create an additional printer queue which is configured just
like the one you have now, but with a different feature setting. You can
choose the feature string in a printer-by-printer basis in the file
/etc/apsfilterrc.<printername>.
Then you could name them printer.single and printer.double or something
like this, so as to achieve a choice.
lpr -Pprinter.single
lpr -Pprinter.double
Best of luck,
