Yes, you can inhibit page-reversal even with '%!PS-Adobe-' PS files.

I just wanted to add that Transcript can be configured.  Replying to Juerg
Wanner's comments concerning page reversal, specifying 'REVERSE=' in the
printer's `option' file (on our system it's option but `man 8 transcript'
says that it's .option).  Looking thru transcript's printer shell scripts
as well as the man pages helps.
