J2SE Version (please include all output from java -version flag):
  Java 1.3 - any version from 1.3.0 to 1.3.1_01a
  Java 1.4 - all tested version including 1.4 beta3

Operating System Configuration Information (be specific):
  On any Windows operating system (9x, NT4, 2000)

Hardware Configuration Information (be specific):
  Works fine on HP Laserjet 4050 TN printer, but fail on Kyocera or
  a HP Laserjet 5 SI printer. Both of them has latest printer driver
  installed.

Bug Description:

  Having problem to print two-sided forms on a duplex printer. Customers
  use a book for collecting two forms in one printer job and print strings
  inside these forms with Graphics.drawString(). The most printers prints
  two single-sided sheets of paper instead of one sheet printed on both
  sides. Only one printer, a HP Laserjet 4050 TN does the job correct,
  where a Kyocera or a HP Laserjet 5 SI for example does not, though they
  are of course equipped with a duplexing unit and duplexing is enabled in
  the printer driver and in the printer dialog.

  Our first guess was, that they exceeded the imageable area of the printer,
  thus producing a second page occupying the backside of the form, but with
  a test producing just a small text at the center of the form.



Steps to Reproduce (be specific):

  run attached jar file - java -jar TestDruck.jar J H 1 to reproduce
  the problem.

  Also attached a simplified version of the frame class for printing
  (DruckTest.java).

Test program(DruckTest.java)

                printForm(printJob, pformVal);
            }
            else return;
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

vPageFormat)
    {
        Book bk = new Book();
        UZFormularBedruckenSeite1 lUZFormularBedruckenSeite1 = new
UZFormularBedruckenSeite1("100", true);
        bk.append(lUZFormularBedruckenSeite1, vPageFormat);
        UZFormularBedruckenSeite2 lUZFormularBedruckenSeite2 = new
UZFormularBedruckenSeite2("100", true);
        bk.append(lUZFormularBedruckenSeite2, vPageFormat);
        System.out.println("Book:".concat(String.valueOf(bk.getNumberOfPages())));
        System.out.println("Print Job:".concat(String.valueOf(vPrinterJob.toString())));
        vPrinterJob.setPageable(bk);
        try
        {
            vPrinterJob.print();
            boolean flag1 = true;
            return flag1;
        }
        catch(Exception ex)
        {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    private static PrinterJob mPrinterUZ;
}

fixed. verified testcase provided in the bug report through HP Laserjet 5 SI driver, on win2000 with java Java2D:08-Apr-02@04:09. I did not verify with the driver Kyocera, since the bug report did not metion which version to be used to reproduce the bug.
