Hello,

I have a HP LaserJet 8100 network printer defined on my machine(
AlphaServer 1000A running Tru64 4.0F). It is set to print double sided by
default. I cannot override this default and print single sided. I've
tried lpr -K1 and a2ps -s1, but it still prints double sided.

The default needs to stay as double sided. Any ideas how I override the
default and print single sided?

The printer is set to 2-sided printing set to Long Edge Binding in HP's
JetAdmin Utility (that I run from my Windows 98 PC).

The printcap entry for the printer is:
lps20|zimmer|8100dn|8100 DN HP LaserJet:\

         :if=/usr/lbin/ppdof +Bmiddle +Ilower +Chp8100_4.ppd:\
