HL-L2300D on Raspberry Pi OS using v6 Network Sharing via CUPS, No Double-Sided Printing #93

Printer sharing via Raspberry Pi 3, using Windows 10 works however, on either platform, double-sided printing fails. The printer shows that it receives and spools the job but fails to print.

Strangely, on earlier attempts using v4 I got a test page from Windows 10 (which uses the Microsoft IPP driver) to execute a double-sided print, but no luck since.

I did change the configuration file in CUPS to allow the printer to show on the network.

Thank you very much for your work. I can live with single-sided printing for now. But please let me know of further developments/resolutions on this issue. Best regards.

Same issue here, I have brother HL-L2321D. I selected "Brother HL-L2300D, using brlaser v4 (en)" from the CUPS printer management page.

Windows 10 detect printer, but it does not do 2 sided print . Sometimes page appear blank

I installed cups printer driver usingsudo apt-get install printer-driver-brlaser.

No double-sided printing for DCP-7040 either. Would love to contribute if the author or someone can provide some direction.

I would encourage anyone with duplexing trouble to try out the code I've submitted in #124 – which alters the way that the driver requests duplexing. I've tested with an HL-L2300D on OS X, and would love to get test reports from other printers and configurations.

After building and installing the latest source from the master branch, I see the printer listed at the top of the list.
