For the default, the manual page says, "don't do anything in PostScript,
use the printer default."

For one -t, the manual page says, "force printer to do duplex."

For two -t options, the manual page says, "force printer not to do it."

For thre -t options, the manual page says, "force printer to do duplex."


All of the -t states in Debian's mpage 2.5.6-1 are exactly the opposite
of what they should be.  Please swap them around.

Thank you,
