I wish to print a GNU manual on both sides of each sheet to reduce the
bulk of the manual.  Kevin Coombes' dvi2ps handily will allow one to
print first the even, then the odd pages.  So I printed one side of
all the sheets, put them back in the tray, and tried to print the
second side...just about each sheet came out wrinkled and unreadable
(I stopped it after a few sheets).

Is there a trick to getting the LW II to print double-sided?  Special
paper, maybe?  I'm using standard xerographic paper from the copy
room.

Thanks,
