albook:~/Desktop/dreiseitduplex fv$ dvips -P Phaser3500_63D7  
dreiseitduplextest | lpr
dvips: warning: no config file for `Phaser3500_63D7'

Prints. But not in duplex mode. Which option do I need to print in  
duplex mode? To check whether the failure occurs when printing  
directly the PS file it's neccessary to invoke a duplex output.

Thanks. Friedrich
