Now that ajax is printing all jobs double sided, many users are complaining
because the first document pages is coming out on the back of the job header 
page.  This seems bad, especially considering that the expressed purpose of
setting ajax to duplex was "concern[] about the paper usage on Athena General
Use Cluster printers," as it causes many people to reprint their jobs on
other printers in order to get a "good" copy of the first page.  It seems
like it would be much more useful to modify the job header to contain a
second (blank) page which would get "printed" on the other side of the header
page, causing the first page of the job to go on a different sheet.
