Hi,

1. I have a post-script file having two Images and feature entry for Duplex print. From PostScript printer it is printing duplex. 

%%BeginFeature: *Duplex DuplexNoTumble
%% FoomaticRIPOptionSetting: Duplex=DuplexNoTumble
%%EndFeature
 
Both pages are separated as
%%Page: 1 1

%%PageTrailer
%%Page: 2 2

grestore
gsave
ESPwl

showpage
%%PageTrailer
%%EOF
2. I am using following GS command to convert PS to PCL
gs -sDEVICE=pcl3 -r600 -sColorModel=CMY -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -dNOINTERPOLATE -sOutputFile=/home/lfs/psTopclfile /home/lfs/imgtopsfile -c quit
gs -sDEVICE=pxlcolor -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -dNOINTERPOLATE -sOutputFile=/home/lfs/psTopclfile /home/lfs/imgtopsfile -c quit
gs -sDEVICE=pxlmono -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -dNOINTERPOLATE -sOutputFile=/home/lfs/psTopclfile /home/lfs/imgtopsfile -c quit

3. when I tried to start it with -dDuplex option, gs came out with error code 255.
 
4. Issue is : in all above three cases output PCL file is simplex.

I do not know whether it is problem of input PS file, but PostScript printer is printing Duplex.
Please give response.


Thanks & Regards
Gaurav Mathur
