How do i set up duplex printing in windows 8

HP Deskjet 6980
Win 8 pro 64bit
how do i gwt support for duplex printing as the basic driver installed does not support it ?

sdsjp04, I would recommend disconnecting the printer from the computer and uninstalling/removing the printer from Programs and Features, Device Manager, and Devices and Printers.
Then follow this link for the full feature drivers:

    Hi,
    Try saving your settings as a Preset by clicking the Preset drop down and then select Save Current Settings as a Preset.
    Next try changing the settings by selecting the saved preset.
    That allow saving the settings for a specific printer, I assume it may also allow selecting these settings for another printer.

  • How do I set up my printer to only print in black?

    how do I set up my printer to only print in black?

    Please read this post then provide some details.  What printer model? What operating system?   Depending on your printer model you might remove the color cartridge, forcing black only printing, or select "Print in Grayscale" and "Black ink only" in the driver. 
    Some printer models (whether from HP or other manufacturers) may not allow printing in black if the color inks are empty.  There are also some other constraints, black only printing is generally not available when printing on photo papers and may not be available when printing with an automatic two-sided duplexer.

  • How can I set Firefox to print to PDF, the only otions I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

    A couple of weeks ago, from the file menu, in my print options was to print a web page to PDF, that facility is no longer there. does anyone know how can I set Firefox to print to PDF.
    The only options I have are (1) My Canon printer, (2) Fax or (3) Microsoft XPS document writer. There is no option for PDF

    Firefox generally displays the printers in Windows' Printers folder (Start orb > Devices and Printers). If it is missing one of the printers listed there, could you indicate which one it is, for example, Adobe Distiller, PrimoPDF, CutePDF Writer, etc.?
    If you previously had an add-on which added print-to-PDF functionality just to Firefox, perhaps it got disabled. You could check here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
    Also, are you really running Firefox 8.0.1? That version from last November is no longer secure and has been superseded by Firefox 11. If you browse the web widely, you should update for your security.

  • How do I set up my printer to air print

    How do I set up my printer to AirPrint

    Review this Apple Support page
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    If your printer supports AirPrint you prettyd much just have to turn it on. Your iPad should find it.
    Keep in mind though, that not all Wi-Fi printers support AirPrint. Check to see if your printer is listed in the AirPrint support page.

  • How do I set up my printer to print from my iPad?

    How do I set up my printer to print from my iPad?

    If the printer supports AirPrint then you should be able to print to it just by the iPad and printer being connected to the same wifi network.
    AirPrint : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    If it doesn't support AirPrint then you could check if the printer manufacturer has their own app in the app store, or there are third-party printer apps such as PrintCentral Pro and Print n Share which might let you print to it

  • How do I set up my printer on my AE Express in a WDS environment?

    How do I set up my printer on my AE Express in a WDS environment? I can set it up to be used on my base station but I want to be able to plug in my printer in another AE Express which is currently set up as a repeater. Is this possible? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    More info...  Printer is a Cannon ip6000d.  When I try to add the printer from different computers, they can not "see" the printer.  The printer does show up on my AirPort utility, but when I try to add the printer  from other computers, it can't be found.  Is there a special path for it the computers to find the printer?
    Also, the light is showing green and has no errors showing in the AirPort utility.

    How do I set up a printer to my iPad?

    This tells you all you need to know ... including a list of the printers supported by AirPrint, which is the best way to use the iPad to print.
    AirPrint Basics
    If you don't have a printer on the attached list, you'll have to search the App Store for some print utility, probably supplied by the manufacturer.

  • How can I set 'Adobe PDF printer' as one of my printer choices?

    I've given it half an hour. Can't seem to figure out how I can set 'Adobe PDF printer' as one of my printer options. I'm not sure if I need to download an Adobe file, and what folder I might need to place it in, and if I also need to add a specific driver.
    I'm trying to create a PDF file that printers and outfits like www.lulu.com will accept. Printing an MS Word document via 'Adobe PDF printer' will allow me, I'm told, to produce a suitable PDF file.
    Ideally I'm producing the original document in Pages - but I've been told by printers and lulu.com et. al. that no one out there likes PDF's produced by Pages ("not professional").
    Any suggestions you might have would be most appreciated...

    I downloaded the Lulu Adobe PDF joboptions file ... but it didn't come with any instructions on how to install or use it. I just have the file. I opened it with a double click and got Adobe Distiller - and I can 'see' what the settings are, but I'd love to understand how to install it so it becomes a selection when I export from Pages.
    Forget the Lulu instruction about double click to install. Quit Acobat Distiller and Acrobat Pro. Move the Lulu joboptions file to the Adobe PDF Settings folder. The path to it is:
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe PDF/Settings/
    or
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings/
    You're in the right folder when you see other joboptions files already in the Settings folder.
    Next, launch Pages and open your document.
    From the File menu, select Page Setup. In that window, select Adobe PDF 7 for "Format for," choose your paper size, orientation and scale % and click OK.
    From the File menu, select Print
    In the Print window, be sure the Printer is Adobe PDF 7
    Click on Layout for a pop down list and select PDF Options
    To the right of "Adobe PDF Settings" click for a pop up list and select Lulu
    Click Print

  • How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg

    How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg, even ones that are not yet installed / connected to the computer?
    I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

    Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
    If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

  • How do I set up e print for my laserjet P1102 for Mac

    how do I set up e print for my laserjet P1102 for Mac? I have downloaded soft ware & ejected disc as directed & don't know next step. Thanks

    Hi,
    As you have setup the printer now you should be having the printers IP address. 
    If not please connect your printer to wifi network with a valid internet network and get the IP address by printing the config page.
    Make sure you connect Mac Book to the same wifi network.
    Now type the IP address on a browser in your Mac Book and hit enter.
    You should be able to see the Embedded Web Server page of your printer.
    Now navigate to Web Services Tab.
    Click on Enable to enable eprint on your printer.
    This will enable the web services on your printer and print the information sheet.
    The information sheet will contain the claim code for your printer.
    The <Claimcode>@hpeprint.com will be your email ID for the printer.
    Kind Regards,
    Oliver

  • How do i set up mobile printing

    how do i set up mobile printing ?

    @angelsmith4,
    The best way to setup mobile printing for your devices is:
    Go to the Setup menu (wrench icon) on your printer.
    Go to the Web Services menu.
    Enable web services.
    After which, an information page should print out with a three setup process.
    Sign up at ePrintCenter.com.
    Register your printer's ePrint code (it will be on the information page on step two).
    Customize your printer's ePrint address.
    Now you can print on the go by emailing your printer from your device, and addressing the email to your printer's ePrint address.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • How do I set up wireless printing of my Officejet Pro 8500 on a laptop with Windows 8?

    How do I set up wireless printing from my all in one Officejet Pro 8500 printer to my laptop with Windows 8?

    You can set up your printer for wireless pretty easily if you have the Full Feature Software installed on your computer for your printer.  The setup is done as part of the installation.
    Read through below, then select how you wish to proceed.  There is a video to assist - see below!
                                                               Install Printer Driver / Software
    If your printer stops working (and it’s not a hardware problem), it may be due to software or driver issues.  There are tools to help you diagnose the problem and help documents to guide you to success. 
    You might just desire extra features for your printer, or need extra tools to help with scheduled maintenance.
     In many cases, you can (re)install the Full Feature Softwarefor your printer to enhance its capabilities.  The HP Solution Center is an integrated part of the FFS.  For e-print, you will want the e-print software.
    If you have the CD that came with your printer, use that to install your Printer software  -- IF the CD is compatible with your current Operating System.  If you do not have the CD, or if the software on the CD is outdated, then you can use the online installation tools.
    (Re)install the basic driver or HP Printer Full Feature Software or other software for your printer:
    Drivers control hardware connected to the computer (wired or wireless)
    Software controls the programs that interact with the User
    Go to the top of the forum page to Support and Drivers
     Officejet Pro 8500 Series
    Enter your Printer Model information, and then go to Software and Drivers...
    Enter your Operating System in the Drop-down menu...  Click NEXT and Scroll down
    Look for category Driver - Product Installation Software
    Select the appropriate Basic Driver, e-print, or Full Feature Software, as appropriate
    NOTE:  You may also wish to download the Print and Scan Doctor and / or other Tools from Category - Utilities
    Save the *.exe installation package(s) on your computer
    Pay attention to the name and the location of the file(s) when you save the file(s).  The file(s) will likely save to the "Downloads “folder.
    You may remove your existing printer software with the following tool.  Fixit is of particular use when the existing printer software is being replaced due to severe problems with the printing program.
    Fixit -- Fix problems with programs that can't be installed or uninstalled
    NOTE:  If you have a recent working version of the Full Feature Software on your computer, you may opt to skip removing the existing printer software in the above separate step.  During installation of your Full Feature Software, when the installer package detects the “old” printer software on your computer, the program will ask you to remove that old software:  The program will then invoke an internal printer software removal program that is written to remove printer software.  Once most of the old printer software is removed, you will be asked to Reboot your computer and log back in.  After you log in, the final bits of the old printer program(s) are deleted and the new software will be installed.  Depending on your system, the whole uninstall and install process might take as much as eight to twelve minutes.
    Remember to Install the programs from Category Utilities first, if applicable, as these are smaller in size.
    Install the downloaded Printer Software package last.
    If you have ‘Admin’ control, you may highlight the package and “double-click” to install it, else Right-Click, Select ‘run as Administrator’ and install.
    NOTES: 
    If using: Download and install the driver software before connecting a USB cable.
    After the initial installation is complete, be sure to check for and install any relevant updates  - check Category  - Update.  The Updates are important and can mean the difference between software that works as expected and software that does not work.
    You may also wish to check for a Category named Firmware.  Installation of any package in this Catagory is personal choice and must be based on the contents in the package and whether or not your printer is working as expected.
