Hi Gernot,

I just wanted to report back that I am finally using Gutenprint 5.2.12 
with the duplex option for the Canon MAXIFY MB2020. The driver is 
absolutely *fantastic*. It is a truly *massive* improvement over the 
proprietary Canon `cnijfilter2` driver that I was using before. Thanks 
to this new Gutenprint driver, I finally have the fine output 
adjustments I needed, the duplex mode is more intelligent because it can 
also handle single-page documents, and best of all, there are no more 
issues with missing lines that I had with the proprietary driver.

Thanks so much for making this work for open source users!
