can't get hardware-duplex to work

[Camille Dominique <dominique@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, 
Since I've been using the 7.x versions of apsfilter, I haven't been able
to get duplex printing to work anymore.

I'm printing over the network to an HPLaserJet 5M postscript with a
duplex unit, and it used to work before with the 6.1x version of
apsfilter.

I did an aps2file -D, and there is a spot where it says "unset DUPLEX" ?
Anyway, I'd like to know if I'm missing something:

**** my apsfilterrc settings:

PRINTER='PS'
PAPERSIZE='a4'
METHOD='auto'
QUALITY='medium'
COLOR='gray'
RESOLUTION='600x600'

HARDWARE_DUPLEX=set
ASCII_HEADER=set
DUPLEX=set

**** and this is what aps2file -D gave me 
 (dont' feel irritated by me replacing my host-, user- and 
  queuenames for the posting):
