I have captured the PostScript which OpenOffice.org sends to CUPS by
disabling my print queue (printer with HPIJS driver), sending the job
from OOo (with Duplex set to "Long Edge" in the printing dialog) and
then copying the /var/spool/cups/d* file. After that I have re-enabled
the queue so that I could capture the error_log of the filtering
process.

Neither the PostScript file nor the IPP attributes (line  "... [Job
<number>] argv[5]="...") sent with the job contain the information that
I have set the duplex option.

The arguments sent are the following:

D [30/May/2009:02:17:16 +0200] [Job 1707] argv[5]="document-name=2wgZXI
PrintoutMode=Draft PageSize=Letter InputSlot=Default job-
uuid=urn:uuid:09757477-add1-34b6-66f2-80031c279057"

The PostScript file is attached.

This means that OOo has a bug, not including the Duplex setting in the
print job. OOo should add "Duples=DuplexNoTumble" to the arguments.
