[Pkg-cups-devel] Bug#652818: Support for manual duplex

Package: cups-client
Version: 1.5.0-13
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/lp

It would be cool if lp supported me with manual duplex, which is
painful not only due to #652817.

This is actually not so hard, especially not in conjunction with
#508275.

Without #508275:

  % lp --manual-duplex somefile.pdf
  info: printing even pages in reverse
  info: inverse pages and hit [return]
  info: printing odd pages forward

This will not work for multiple documents. #508275 is needed for
that, then:

  % lp --manual-duplex somefile.pdf somefile2.pdf
  info: printing odd pages forward
  info: inverse pages and hit [return]
  info: printing even pages in reverse

Cheers,
