Differences between our old LPRng print system
- To duplex you need to specify -o sides=two-sided-long-edge instead of -Zduplex the same way. -o sides=two-sided-short-edge can be used for the other duplex orientation.
- Using the lpr command is available, the lp command is the main supported command and has more functionality.
