This isn't Gutenprint.  It would either work in all cases, or be broken
in all cases.

Please could you attach .ps files of both OOo output and an example of
what is printed mirrored (with details of how it was produced).

Also your .lpoptions and cups configuration details would be useful
(cupsd.conf, printers.conf, /etc/cups/ppd/<queue>).


Thanks,
Roger
