Author custom page sizes & duplex printing
Needo

My printer is Samsung Laser printer 2151N.

When i try to print a PS file which has custom page size and with duplex
option enabled then duplex printing doesn't work. Instead my printer
starts printing pages on seperate sheets of paper.

Do my printer support duplexing for custom page sizes. ?

What modification can we do in PostScript code so that duplexing works
for custom page sizes as well?

That's something to ask Samsung.

If it doesn't support it, the printer would need redesigning. Duplex
handlers in printers are extremely sensitive, with all sorts of moving
parts, and I can well imagine that they are designed only for
particular paper sizes.
