[CM] Large print troubles with CMN

Hi,
I'm trying to use CMN to produce large-print music,
I'm using these settings to get just two piano staves (bass and treble
systems with braces) per page:
(cmn
(size 45)
(output-file "Foo.eps")
(all-output-in-one-file t)
(beam-slope-trigger 0)
;;; For landscape layout
(matrix '(0 1 -1 0 500 0))
(page-width 11.0)
(page-height 8.0)
(left-margin 0.5)
(right-margin 0.5)
(header-margin 1.0)
(footer-margin 0)
;;; (system-separation 1.0)
...but I'm having the following troubles:
1. I want to duplex-print the music. I set "(all-output-in-one-file t)",
but page breaks don't work when printing via gv to a Brother HL-1670N
through CUPS with Foomatic + Postscript, so both "pages" get printed on
one side of the paper.
2. I'd like to be able to set the number of measures per line, is there
a way to do that?
3. For a small number of measures, say eight, CMN doesn't divide them
evenly between systems. I get six measures on the top system, and two
measures on the bottom.
