Yes thanks, that makes sense. Meanwhile, don't know how it happened, but
this morning I printed a one page doc and the printer fed the sheet back
in and tried to print page 2. There was no page 2 so the paper just fed
through quickly and I finished with just the one page as expected.

I will try printing a 2 page doc and see what happens.

Thanks

Would a2ps help this allows printing from the command line,  looking at
the following site it does seem to support duplex printing at least.

http://www.math.grinnell.edu/mathlan/printing-with-a2ps.xhtml

maybe Henry Brembridge can help with this as he introduced me to it a
few years ago,  its one of these packages that come in handy from time
to time but  as with most things unix has a stack of features.

Thanks, will have a look at that.
