At Lou's request I'm sending more info about the problem described in
the email below. The duplex queue works fine except for files with
the first line as described below, and a new case I discovered today.
The new case looks like this:

The error is:
ERROR: undefined

Since it's in a comment that BoundingBox should not affect things.
Again, this case worked fine on the single-side luna queue. Unless
there is a problem I don't know about, putting in the same fix for
luna2 that worked on the luna queue would be fine. Thanks!

The duplex print queue luna2 (HP printer in 54-311) doesn't have the
fix for the EPSF problem. The simplex luna queue does have the fix.
The problem I'm referring to is that files that start with the line:
%!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-2.0
Are rejected with:
ERROR: undefined
OFFENDING COMMAND: EPSF-2.0
Stack:
printed on the paper. They print fine on the straight luna queue.
Please let us know when it's fixed. Thanks!
