Reversing page order on lgp2 printers

[jwalker@crl.dec.com]

    Does anyone know how to do this? Genera 7.4 has a flavor instance variable
    in the lgp2-printer flavor for default-print-backwards, but changing its
    value has no effect (I guess because my machine isn't the print server.) 
    The print server is running 7.2, and the corresponing flavor has no such
    iv. (It also doesn't have lgp3 defined.) So - is there an easy way to 
    reverse the default print order, or should I wait for 8.0 ?

Well, I don't know exactly how you did what you did with the
flavor instance variable.  When I faced this same issue, I
changed the namespace object for the printer to include the
following line:

User Property: DEFAULT-PRINT-BACKWARDS nil

(The value is "nil" not NIL which alarmed me at first but it
turned out to be what was supposed to happen.)

We are running 7.4 but print serving from a UNIX for
whatever that means.  Don't waste time tinkering with
printer type LGP3 if you want to use Format Buffer or the
Concordia formatter; they don't support LGP3 (I hope this is
temporary).
