You are right but in doing that I learned something. When I printed
before option 2. above was the default option. However, highlighting
option 3 and clicking default changed that. I also noticed that the
option checked is dependent on the printer you choose to print to. So in
my case the Generic Postscript corresponded to Duplex being checked and
my default printer had neither duplex not tumble checked. Again this
could be changed and would remain for the printer it was identified
with.
