[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#508275: Option to always force even number of pages output per document

[martin f krafft]

Package: cups-client
Version: 1.3.8-1lenny4
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/lp

When printing a large number of documents and wanting to manually
duplex the output, it would be useful if lp/cups could help me by
always printing an even number of pages for each document, i.e.
printing an empty page after each document with an odd number of
pages.
