Bug Description
Binary package hint: cups
On Intrepid there seems to be no way to print in reverse order. All of the settings for this option seem to be ignored.
I've tried setting the Output Order in the Hp-Toolbox to Reversed with no effect.
I've tried the command "lpadmin -p Photosmart_C7200 -o outputorder-
And I've tried manually adding "*DefaultOutput
Steps to reproduce:
1. Use the command "lpadmin -p printer_name -o outputorder-
2. Find a multi-page document, .odt, .pdf, .txt, anything printable.
3. Print it.
Expected result:
The last page will be printed first.
Actual result:
The first page is still printed first.

I think I've narrowed this down to a regression between cups 1.3.9-2 and cups 1.3.9-2ubuntu1. On a fresh install this works as expected. After applying the cups 1.3.9-2ubuntu1 update it's broken. Downgrading cups makes it work again. Also it's not specific to any printer, it's reproducible with the cups-pdf virtual printer.
