net-print/brother-hll8350cdw-bin : duplexing on hll8250cdn does not work #112

I have a Brother HL-L8250CDN. There is no net-print/brother-hll8250cdn-bin driver. The brother-hll8350cdw-bin driver WORKS with this printer except for one detail: it refuses to print duplexed from Linux no matter how it is told to, even if duplexing is enabled on the printer by default, even with HP LaserJet emulation enabled on the printer. Duplex printing of the exact same document/page from Windows 10 works just fine.

Is there any way to resolve this?

Hi @UnixRonin ,

thanks for your question, unfortunately I cannot help with debugging this specific printer configuration but I'll leave the ticket open as maybe someone else has some input.
