[opensuse] How to change printer attributes?
Hi All,

First, thanks to Dirk Gently and upscope for the installation help and the
installation automating script. Dirk, the "R" on the end of "SCANLETTE" in the
6th line of the scanner script is missing.

I recently obtained an Brother MFC-J6710DW printer and installed the
requisite drivers for network use. Works great!

The only problem I'm having is trying to print in duplex (two-sided) mode. I
haven't been able to find out where to set that attribute. Duplex printing is
working from Winblows-7 but not Linux. (screenshots attached)

So far I've searched through the ppd file (from Brother), cups 1.5
documentation, and openSuSE documentation but can't find it.

I'd appreciate suggestions about where to look or what to do.
