Hi,

It is possible indeed to hardcode double sided printing. However, I am not sure if you can do this using Cocoa only, since these methods might be too limited.
You have to interact with the jobticket, as Nicko indicated. If Cocoa is too limited indeed, you can use the Carbon Printing Manager function calls.

I have a printer which can print two-sided documents.
I have to choose two-sided printing in the print-dialog. Is there a
way I can hard-code that into my application, so the user never have
to think about this?

I don't know for certain but I'd guess that IF you can do this it will
be by setting a key in the NSPrintInfo dictionary, since that is the
mechanism by which the setting would be remembered in from one print
run to another. There is no pre-defined key for double-sided but if
you were to fix your application to dump the contents of the dictionary
after a print run and then run it once in double-sided mode you might
be able to work it out.
