[PATCH]
The problem here is testing. I don't have a duplex-capable printer so I
can test the behaviour. You obviously do. Can you please try to fix the
problem in code yourself and post a patch?

This is not a bug. See my post [1] on fop-user on how to configure FOP to 
generate Postscript that works on a Duplex (HP) Printer.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but I did explain this to you on the mailing 
list yesterday. Your patch is invalid since it replicates existing 
functionality. The PSPageDeviceDictionary class is already capable of de-
duplicating page device settings if they don't change between pages.
