2-sided printing on HP Photosmart 5524 from Mac

Hi. I've just bought a new HP 5524 and installed it, connected by wireless to my MacBook Pro on Mac OS X 10.7.5.
I do not get the option to select 2-sided printing in the printer dialogue box, and would like to know what is needed to do to be able to print 2-sided.
Best
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
Two-sided printing is available within the printer driver and can be configured as following:
From the application used to print, click the File menu, select Print. The Print window appears.
NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click the blue triangle next to the printer name to see all available settings.
In the expanded Print window you will find next to Copies the checkbox for Two-Sided. Check the box.
NOTE: If the checkbox does not appear within the specific application print dialog, skip this step.
Click the lowest selection box listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
Select Layout from the drop-down menu.
Set the Two-Sided option as Long-Edge binding (Portrait), or Short-Edge binding (landscape).
You may save the settings for future use by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset... Any used preset will remain default till another preset will be used.
Please let me know of any issues,
Shlomi

How to show the layout option for double-sided printing on Acrobat Pro X on Mac?

Adobe Acrobat Pro X version 10.0.0 print dialog does not show the option to select Layout for two-sided (double-sided) printing. How to fix it?
System: Mac OS X 10.6.6 on Mactel
Thanks.

David,
Wow, it worked. Many thanks. This is what I did, following your directions to print PDF files as double-sided:
01-Command P & Click "Printer button".
02-Click Yes.
03-Click the Popup Arrow to display contents.
04-Select Two-sided "Long-Edge binding" or whatever needed and Click Print.
05-Click OK to Print.
What fooled me is that from Word (.doc) files the screen on step 3 and 4 show directly selecting a popup menu on the initial print window, whereas when printing PDF files it is required to go through steps 1-2-3 above.
Again, many thanks. You made my day!!!

Does anyone know if I can print to hp photosmart 5510 from my 1st generation ipad if I can't download the drivers for the printer?

Am trying to set up an HP Photosmart printer and it is proving much more complicated than I'd expected. I don't seem to be able to download to my ipad from the HP website - does anyone know how I manage to print, or get my ipad to recognidse the printer, if I've no printer software downloaded?
Thanks, in anticipation, for your help

You can't download drivers, or any other software, via a browser on the iPad. If the printer isn't the HP Photosmart 5510 e-AiO B111a which supports AirPrint, and it also isn't supported by HP's ePrint app, then you can see if any of the third-party printer apps such as Print Central For iPad or Print n Share work with it.

Printing to Xerox WorkCentre 7655 From Mac OS 10.4.9

I have a 1.5 GHz PowerBook G4 (1 GB RAM) and upgraded to Mac OS X (10.4.9) a couple of days ago. My printer (Xerox WorkCentre 7655, attached through Airport Wireless/Ethernet) will only print one copy, regardless of how many copies I request. If I request 200 copies, I still only receive one copy from the printer.
I noticed that one of the problem 10.4.9 "corrected" was the number of copies with the print server.
What gives? How do I get the number of copies I request to print out correctly?
I have shut everything down, re-set everything, reinstalled the printer drivers, and scoured the settings to make sure they are correct. This was clearly engaged when I upgraded to 10.4.9... Any helpful thoughts?
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I have encountered the same problem -- only prints one copy, regardless of how many are requested -- with our Xerox WCP C2636. Xerox tech support reloaded and upgraded the software on the printer and I reinstalled the PPD on my machine. Choosing "collated" fixed the problem in Adobe InDesign CS2 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 7. But the problem persists in other apps, such as Word 2004, Preview and Pages. I spoke with Xerox level 2 sofware support; they were unable to reproduce the problem on their test Mac (I suspect it wasn't upgraded to 10.4.9).
I suppose that I am joining the increasingly large number of users who are eagerly awaiting a fix for this annoying and frustrating problem.

Suddenly cannot print to hp6510 which works from mac?

Suddenly cannot AirPrint to hp6510 from ipad2. Printer works perfectly with MacBook. iPad networked correctly to routers etc. what and how to check what is wrong?i

Hello John,
I found some resources that I think might help with the issue you are experiencing when trying to print from your iPad.
First, I recommend following these steps:
If you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found"
Verify that the printer:
Has power and is turned on. If it has power, turn the printer off and then on again to see if that resolves the issue.
Is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the iOS device.
Has the latest firmware version installed.
Has paper with enough ink or toner installed.
Is free of any errors displayed on the printer's control panel.
You can find the full article here:
AirPrint Basics
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If you are still having trouble printing after following those steps, I recommend following these steps:
Wi-Fi disconnects, or signal strength is less than expected
Move closer to the Wi-Fi router (access point).
Check for sources of potential interference.
Remove any case, stand, or other accessories from your iOS device and see if signal strength improves.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.

HP LaserJet P1005 Two-sided printing not working on network

Good day!
I have a desktop, with Windowx XP, to which my LaserJet P1005 is connected via USB. My wife has a laptop, with the same Windows XP, from which she can print, but the two-sided option does not work right. She can check it and print, but the window to restart printing for the second side does not open and there is nothing we can do at this point.
I have trie duninstalling the printer from both computers and reinstalling the newest drivers, it still won't work.
Thanks for your help!

I have an HP PhotoSmart 2575 All-in-One with the latest HP driver that displays the two-sided printing option greyed-out in the Layout window. According to HP, your printer must be capable of accepting an optional two-sided printer tray to work on a Mac. To me that is ludicrous since in Windows the driver supports manual two-sided printing.
To get around this, I select the Paper Handling window and from the Pages to Print drop-down list select Odd only instead of the default All Pages. After clicking the print button the odd pages print starting with the last page and ending with the first. I then remove all paper and reinsert the printed pages with the top of the page facing the printer. First, though, I reorder the pages with the first page on the bottom and the last page on top. If the total number of pages is an odd number, I remove the last page from the inserted stack, as that is the very last printed page. I then select Even only from the Pages to Print drop-down list and click print again.
Problem solved.

HP L7760 two-sided printing not working

I have an HP Officejet Pro L7760 which does two-sided printing, or it did until I upgraded from 10.5.2 to 10.5.5. I have reset the printer system, downloaded & installed the latest printer software from HP. I called HP. I called Apple.
I see the Apple website says the latest HP printer driver is 1.1.1. When I bring up Print & Fax, it says my printer driver is 2.3.1.
Does anyone know how to get back the two sided printing? Which driver version is correct? Any thing I can try?

(HP Officejet pro8620) on a mac book pro, set default to single sided printing

Can anyone assist. I have found out how to switch off the 2 sided printing on a job by job basis, but I want single sided as a default.

Hi DF99,
I am not sure why yours is defaulting to two-sided printing.
Open Text Edit from Applications.
Go to File, Print, click on the drop down and select Layout.
Uncheck the two-sided feature.
Then click on Presets near the top.
Select save as and provide a new name.
Type something in Text Edit and try printing it.
Then close and reopen Text Edit again, it should default to last preset that we made and printed to.
Try printing again to see if that worked.
If the doesn't work, select Standard from the Preset and check under Layout to see if the two-sided is checked or not.
Try printing again, if it is showing the one sided.
Let me know.
If the issue persists, delete and add the printer driver back in again from Printers and Scanners.
Thank You.

Two-sided printing works, but alternate pages print "upside down"

I have an HP C6280 all-in-one, networked via Bonjour. The 6280 ships with the duplex (two-sided) printing accessory. Latest drivers from HP (v2.3?) installed. I can select two-sided printing, and it works...but no matter which binding option I choose, the pages print out as if I was binding at the top. IE, page 1,3,5 are right side up but 2,4,6 are upside down. I want binding on the left.
What am I missing? On the HP forum, I saw a note that this is a known problem in Vista. Any ideas? thx

This was a problem about a year old with older drivers for other printers. Maybe somehow you've got these installed. Run the HP Uninstaller from its folder in Applications and uninstall all HP software. Reinstall version 9.7.1 from the download here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-55528-2 &lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&os=219&product=3194498
You could also try reseting the Leopard print system. Search for how to do this.

Can MacBook with Leopard OS do two-sided printing on the Epson NX515?

I am looking to buy an all in one printer, and the Epson NX515 seems best in a number of respects, especially the fact that its ink cartridges come in separate colors, which leads to much less waste of ink. But there is one item in the Epson documentation that concerns me ... the fact that two-sided printing may not be supported by Mac. Does anyone know if the Mac Book A1181 with Leopard OS does or does not support two-sided printing?
Thank you.

Hi @Blazer5,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are wondering how to setup two-sided printing with your HP Envy 5532. I am happy to help!
To setup the duplex printing, I would recommend to go through this guide, Printing on Both Sides of the Paper (Duplex) for HP ENVY 5530 e-All-in-One and Deskjet Ink Advantage..., as it has instructions for both Windows and Mac. Also here are some guidelines for you to follow:
Understanding the following items can help you avoid possible problems when printing on both sides of the page.
Do not print on both sides of the following types of paper, or jams might occur:
Transparencies
Envelopes
Photo paper
Glossy paper
Paper lighter than 60 g/m2 (16 lb).
Paper heavier than 105 g/m2 (28 lb).
Several kinds of paper require a specific orientation when you print on both sides of a page. These include letterheads, preprinted paper, and paper with watermarks and pre-punched holes. The printer prints the first side of the paper first. Load the paper with top edge first and the print side down.
Also, this post, Vista / Win 7 Duplex Printing Troubleshooting Guide, by @Bob_Headrick. Might have some answers for you as well.
In the print dialog box (after selecting File, and Print), you will see a box next to two-sided printing, that can be checked or un-checked, in order to toggle in-between the two functions.
To change the print quality, you will want to go through this guide, HP ENVY 5530 e-All-in-One series and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4510 e-All-in-One series - Print Docum....
For future reference, here is your printer's user guide.
Hope this helps!

Photosmart 5524 intermittently disappears from Wifi print options

I have 2 Photosmart 5524, 1 at home and one at a small office both are connected wirelessly to the network with fixed ip addresses using BT Homehub 3s.
At intermittent points they will both fall off the network requiring a reboot of the printer to get them to reappear.
I am using MacBook Airs, Samsung Ultrabooks and IPad/iPhones to print and the only consistency is that whatever the device there is no guarantee they will be able to print.
Help!

Hopefully I can help your printer(s) maintain a wireless connection. I have seen this router before and it had a substantial firmware update released not too long ago. Are both printers connected to one router or are they connected to two of the same router?
Which computer/device do you use the most? That will be the one I will want to work with you on.
I created another document myself. Hopefully it will be of some assistance.
--Network Communication is Lost--
This outlines some of the steps I will be having you do. Based on the information you have given me, I will be focusing a lot on your wireless network since none of the devices you have seems to constantly stay in contact with the printer. Answer my two questions above please. I will likely have more questions but I need to know which computer you prefer to use before I can ask anything else.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
