Have you checked the USB connection and cable?  Have you tried
connecting wirelessly to your wireless printer?

I use the standard cups foomatic driver for your P1102w printer on my
very similar (or identical)  HP LaserJet Professional P1109w on my
stable/Jessie system.

Browsing to localhost:631/printers shows:

[There is no 2-sided printing.]

Hope this helps.
