>Description:
	When I use the FreeBSD lp command with "-o Duplex=NoTumble" the option
	get lost. When using some other lp this option just works.
>How-To-Repeat:
	man -t zcat | /usr/bin/lp -d HL-5150 -o Resolution=1200dpi -o Duplex=NoTumble
Result is a hardcopy with printers default parameters
Install cups and use cups lp (or lpr, it also accepts -o):
man -t zcat | /usr/local/bin/lp -d HL-5150 -o Resolution=1200dpi -o Duplex=NoTumble
The result is what you wanted, HiRes on both sides.
