When I had problems with this using Ubuntu and an Epson printer, I had 
to wait till the OS updated the drivers, CUPS and others, to fet double 
sided printing and even scanning to work.

For Linux, it could be the driver.  If it happens with Windows, then it 
is the way it is setup in the printer driver options - like using 
Postscript level 3 instead of PDF as the default.
