This thread is over a month old.  I found it when thrashing around to
solve my own problem: failure of duplex printing with Fedora 20 on a
Brother HL-5150D (connected via USB).

Please look at this bugzilla:
	<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1035090>

There is a work-around that works for me (see comment 9):
	sudo lpadmin -p PrinterName -o pdftops-renderer-default=gs

The real problem is a bug ip pdftops.  See:
	<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72312>

Please sign up for bz 1035090 and whine :-)
That may increase the priority for backporting the already-fixed
pdftops.
