The option is not available in the PPD for this printer. This is an
upstream issue which Debian can do little about.

The email for upstream is linux-printer@epson.jp. I will write and ask
whether there something technical which prevents the driver using the
rear slot as a paper source and if a future update will see this fixed.
I suggest you do the same and update us here. You are familiar with
the printer and are in a good position to put a good case for a change.

Regards,

Brian.
