Anybody here have try the double-side printing?

It doesn't work when I try to do the double-side printing. And in the schedule info, it is Single-side --!!. Of course our printer support the double-side printing.So,any idea about this?
And I add the filter to transform the pdf to ps,is this the possible reason that the tray selection and double-side printing do not work?

To print on both sides (Duplex Mode), you have to
1.Have a Postscript ready printer.
2.Install Pasta
3.Install and Setup third party software like xpdf or Ghostscript to convert the PDF to PS file
4.Setup Printer Style and Pasta Config file
a.Define custom print style like 'Duplex PDF Publisher'
b. Assign this print style to Printer Type with with standard PASTA driver 'PASTA_PDF'
c.Then query printer driver 'PASTA_PDF' and on the arguments field, enter following -pn$PROFILES$.PRINTER -f$PROFILES$.FILENAME -c$PROFILES$.CONC_COPIES -Fpasta_pdf.cfg
d. Verify that the file $FND_TOP/resource/pasta_pdf.cfg is present and that it contains only one "uncommented" entry corresponding to the installed third party tool, as follows:
preprocess=pdftops -duplex {infile} {outfile}
pdf2ps (Ghostscript) by itself does not support the duplex option. You will need to use XPDF software (pdftops).

Keeping the double side printing box ticked

I want to do double sided printing. I tick the box and all is OK. But next time I find the box has unticked itself and I have to start all over again with system preferences/print and scan/ select printer/ open print queue/setup/driver/ tick the box. How do I make the box STAY ticked? It used to stay ticked but now defaults to unticked after each double sided print job.

Mac Microsoft Word 2008 double side printing

Hi.
I recently purchased Macbook Pro 15, and installed Microsoft Office 2008.
I have a SamSung Express 282 series laser printer.
When I use my window pc or window labtop, it double-side prints all right.
But when I try to double-side print with Mac Pro Microsoft word 2008, it doesn't work.
From the Print menu, I go to 'printer feature' and click on 'reverse two-sided printing', but it keeps saying
"Changing the setting of Reverse Two-Sided Printing to On would cause a conflict that cannot be resolved. No change will be made,"
and does not let me click on it.
Does anyone know what's going on?
I really want to save some trees and do only double-sided printing, but it doesn't let me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, guys.

Be sure to pick the OS X Lion 10.7 driver from the pulldown menu before selecting the driver category below it.
If that doesn't work, contact Canon. There are some Lion supporting double sided printers for sure.
Mind you,when manufacturers rely on the CUPS drivers as they did in this instance they may have
taken the easy way out, and that might avoid having the double sided printing.
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl899 may be able to patch those drivers to give you double sided printing if the Canon ones do not.
There are a few other open source alternatives*.
When double sided printing doesn't work, the trick is to rotate the pages upside down and feed face down switching odd and even page numbers.
Test with single sheets first, and then once you get the hang of it, do multiple.
I don't know where your printer feeds, so you'll have to try a couple times to figure out the correct direction.

Double side print

I can't double side print because the pdf size is always changing & my printer only will do the double side print if the document is standard size 8x11. How can I change the size of my adobe so it defaults to the required 8x11?

That is specified when the document is created.
But in your case, can't you get it to print when changing Page Size & Handling, e.g. Fit, or Shrink oversized pages?

Double side printing from SAPScript, last page missing

Hello all,
I try to setup double side printing from SAPScript, but have a problem and hope that somebody might help me.
In my form I have two pages with main window (FIRST and NEXT) which have print mode set to 'D' and next page set to 'TANDC'. Page 'TANDC' has only one VAR window which contains terms and conditions text.
Now, everything works fine except that T&C text isn't printed after last page (ie. after last 'NEXT' page). Is there a way to force printing of last (back side) page?
PS: Calling 'WRITE_FORM' from the print program at the end didn't help either.
Thanks in advance.
Grigor

Hi Vinod,
this has a same effect as calling NEW-PAGE from form.
Again, window 'FOOTER' is printed on a new page instead bellow 'MAIN' window and there are no T&C on the last sheet. I also tried to explicitly call text element in window 'FOOTER' before calling 'CONTROL_FORM', like this:
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM' "last element in 'MAIN' window
       EXPORTING
            element = 'LAST'
       EXCEPTIONS
            OTHERS = 01.
CLEAR sy-subrc.
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
       EXPORTING
            element = 'FOOTER'
            window = 'FOOTER'
       EXCEPTIONS
            OTHERS = 01.
CLEAR sy-subrc.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONTROL_FORM'
       EXPORTING
             COMMAND = 'NEW-PAGE'
       EXCEPTIONS
             UNOPENED = 01
             UNSTARTED = 02.
It looks like the 'FOOTER' window is under control of SAPScript, not of print program.
Note: 'CONTROL_FORM' call is placed immediatelly before 'CLOSE_FORM', so at the last possible place.
Kind regards,
Grigor

Double side printing alignment issues

I have a officejet pro 8500a plus. I have Windows 7 and have gotten all the updates that have been sent. I am having trouble with the alignment of the back pages. It cuts off about and inch at the top. How can I get the back page aligned? I try to double side everything, but certain documents are worse than others.
Thanks, Shelly

Shelly,
It sounds as though the Back Side, Top Of Form is shifted down an inch when duplexing. It also sounds like the shift is dependent on media type and size. Here is my suggestion; remove the cables (Power Cord & possible USB or Ethernet cable) from the rear of your unit. Then, remove the duplex module in the lower rear face of the device. There should be a set of pictorials (stickers) displaying how to do this. Once removed, open the doors on the duplexer (there are 2) and make certain no foreign debris or other contaminants are present. You can wipe the elastomeric rollers off with alcohol if they are white colored with paper dust. Replace the module in the rear and reconnect the cables. Then, open the ink supply access door prior to powering the unit up and inspect the other elastomeric rollers. If they are white as well, clean them with a few Q-tips wet with alcohol until the traction returns to the roller. Lastly, check the top cleanout and make certain all the small rollers (which are held in place by small springs) are intact. If you can, whip any paperdust out from the top cleanout and the recess that it fits into. Power the unit on and try a simple duplex command with A size media (81/2" x 11"). Let us know if this fixed your problem.

Black ink only & double side printing

This is regarding a printing issue using my newly bought printer. I wish to print double sided using the option black ink cartrige only under grayscale printing. However, when I select double side printing, there were only 2 options under the grey scale printing (off which means color or high quality). Is there a way to select both double side and black ink cartrige? Furthermore, does grayscale printing using high quality option uses ink from the black ink cartrige or also from the color cartriges? thanks in advance

What printer model? What operating system?
Generally there are two options for grayscale printing, either "use black cartridge only" or not. If the "use black cartridge only" box is not checked color ink will be used as it provides better print quality.
Some printers and some drivers do not support "black cartridge only" when printing in duplex mode. In duplex printing a small amount of color ink may be used to underprint the black print to make it dry faster to prevent smearing in duplex printing. (Not intuitive, but it is correct....)
See here for some information on how ink is used. Some ink will be used for servicing even when printing with black ink only.

Double Side printing in Lion?

Ever since I upgraded to Lion I've noticed that I cannot double side print in Reader. Other apps are set to double side print without issues, but I can't get Reader to DSP. I have Adobe Reader X (10.1.0), Mac OS 10.7.1 and a Lexmark Prevail Pro705. I've even gone to the Lexmark site and updated my driver. Any thoughts? I checked the sticky on the Forum Homepage about Lion compatability, but I was unsure how to translate the work around to my situation.

I ran into the same issue - Adobe Reader does not print double sided on my Lexmark Genesis S815. Did you find a solution in the meantime?

PhotoSmart Premium C309a driver problem in Win10 at double side printing

My problem is as follows: I created a catalog in MS Publisher 2013 for A4 paper format with 2 page per paper. I selected booklet side-fold type and double side printing. MS Publisher prepared all pages in correct way. I even created PDF versuions of such pages. But each time when I print pages, the printer keeps make them smaller (I think it scale them for Letter format) despuite the fact I changes in printer preferences A4as default paper source, all documents are in A4 format etc. As result, the printed pages are shifter from the center page on the left side, which is ok for one side printing but cannot work for doyuble side printing as shift is in different directions for result paper. Additionally, I cannot any more print on DVD or CD surfaces as the driver doesn't support sauch a feature. Please let me know how I can replace the native Windows 10 driver with the one for Windows 8.1? Or is there any other solutions except using another OS? Thx, Vlad.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I noticed that your HP PhotoSmart Premium C309a is having a driver problem in Windows 10 when printing double sided. I am happy to help! According to this guide, How to Use the 2-Sided Feature, it looks to me as if the double sided printing feature is only available to use with regular plain white paper. (Letter sized), which could be why the printer is scaling the size to letter. You could possibly try using an alternate driver, by going to this post, How to Assign Alternate Print Drivers in Different Versions of Windows, by , and follow the steps for Windows 8, as they will work on Windows 10. Then you could attempt a custom size print. But as mentioned previously, I am positive that the 2-sided feature for this printer is for Letter sized paper only, and cannot guarantee this will work. Hope this answers your question, and thank you for posting! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

How do I use the double sided printing with my HP Officejet 6500A plus

I need help with learning to use the double sided printing with my HP Officejet 6500A Plus

Click on the Show Details button just above:
You can configure various options from the dropdown menu just below Orientation.
Printing two-sided requires a two-sided adaptor for the printer. Otherwise, you have to print out odd numbered pages first, turn them over and reinsert into the paper feeder, then print even numbered pages. If you do it right you get a nice two-sided document. If you do it wrong all the even numbered pages will be upside down.

Not using any mouse pad, I have a very smooth desktop. But I just tried to use a sheet of A4 printing paper, but no result, the problem persisted.
Someone on this forum suggested, that USB3 may interfere with the magic mouse.
I have 2 LaCie HDD's about 70 cm away from the mouse, I use them on Thunderbolt. But in operation or not - the result is the same, the mouse plays up! Just now I was clicking the desktop and the mouse created a new folder!!
Thanks for the advice, Bee

Hi,
From the application used to print open the printer dialog, then click on ettings or Preferences to access to Printig Preferences dialog.
Within the Layout tab change the Print on both sides option.
For a portrait oriented document select Flip on Long Edge, for a Landscape one select Flip on Short Edge, then it will print as expected.
