printers but fail on HP 8150......
the set of commands i used is

/StapleLocation (SinglePortrait) >> >> setpagedevice

Look in the PPD file for the LaserJet 8150 and you'll see the printer
needs the following syntax for stapling:

<< /Staple 2 /StapleDetails << /Type 8 /StapleOption (ONEANGLED) >> >>
setpagedevice

This code is for one diagonal staple.
