Duplex printing with Reader XI?

Adobe Reader XI (11.0.07) does not recognize duplex printing for my Brother HL-5370DW printer. This occurs in OS X 10.6.8 and Mavericks (on different computers). All other software, including Acrobat Reader 9 (and earlier versions of Reader) and Acrobat 8 do recognize the duplex mode on the 10.6.8 machine.
Is there a solution or a software workaround?
Thanks

I don't know what is causing this; you could try Print as Image (Advanced button on the Print panel).

Duplex printing with eprint?

Can I use duplex printing with eprint? If not, won't use much.

Hi valkman1291,
Unfortunately the option to use duplexing is not available in ePrint.
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

How to duplex print with HP 200 Laserjet?

I'm having trouble duplex printing with my new Macbook Pro. Any suggestions? I have reloaded print drivers- Originally I was not able to select double sided printing but now I can, but it does not actually print double sided.

For cases where there is no hardware duplexer and the manufacturer's driver does not support manual duplexing, you could try HP's two-sided printing PDF workflow. I have not tried that for quite a while, so I can't guarantee it still works with the latest version of OS X.

Hello dekcanada,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are asking or describing. If you are asking how you would set up double-sided or duplex printing in Yosemite, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following article:

Duplex printing with officejet pro 8000

I am using this officejet pro 8000 to print up some newsletters. When printing a two sided copy (duplex printing) something happens which changes my border setting. Printing the exact same document, but electing one-sided copy renders a perfect border. I would not have a problem copying just one side, then re-loading those in order to make two-sided copies, but the friction caused by the ink on the pages causes mulitple sheets to feed at the same time, jamming the printer. Has HP ever come up with a fix for this? I have seen this problem on the net, but the best folks have done (that I have seen) is to upload drivers for older machines. This has rendered good borders on duplex prints, but diminishes the quality of the print copy. Whatcha think?

Since updating to Snow Leopard, I have had serious problems duplexing. Under the print dialogue window, there is no option to duplex. H.P. blames Mac. Mac blames H.P. I can duplex by going to "layout" and where it says "duplexing off" selecting "long-edge binding" will work. How dumb. Mac Help senior customized my settings by adding "duplex printing" to the "Presets" list.
Are you using the latest drivers from HP? If I set up a printer with the HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809 Series PPD, I can see Two-Sided to the right of Collated if the HP Two-sided Printing Accessory (Duplexer) is checked in the Print & Fax -> Options & Supplies -> Driver tab. If this is not checked, Two-Sided won't appear.

Duplex printing with cups

Hi,
We have a bunch of Macs all running 10.4.9 (Client) which are unable to print double-sided documents to our printer which is hosted by a redhat enterprise server (v4.4) box, cups version 1.2. The annoying thing is everybody else (windows, linux) can. The printers are set up as A4 paper size, the Macs see that and we see the duplex option in the print dialog box but the printouts come out single-sided with a blank sheet at the end. Another aspect is that when we add a printer using System prefs>Print & Fax etc the cups printer description is displayed as the printer name in the set up dialog on the Mac. Has anybody come across this before and, more importantly, does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Cheers,
Matt

Can you tell us which driver you are using on the Mac's. If it is the included GIMP-Print drivers, try the new Gutenprint 5.0.0 drivers.
Also, you may want to check the printer info in case you have to add the duplex option. And also try setting the Page Setup > 'Format for' in the application for the printer, rather than any printer, as this can impact duplex printing for some printers.
Re the printer description being displayed, I know that when you add a network printer the IP address or DNS name is shown as the printers name in the Printer List. You can select it and do a Get Info to rename it.

Default Duplex Printing - Adobe Reader 11

Hello,
I recently installed Adobe Reader 11. I notice that, while the default for my Brothers duplex printer is set in WINDOWS 7 64 bit to Duplex, the Adobe Reader "Print" screen is displayed with the "Print on both sides of paper" box unchecked. If I check it, the printer does the duplex printing correctly.
My question is: why is Adobe Reader 11 overriding my duplex print option setting in Windows, and is there any way to correct this?
Thanks

Hi Atul,
thanks for your response. It turns out the problem is not restricted to Adobe Reader, but also seems to be happening with other Windows programs (like Firefox).
My printer is a Brother HL-5370DW which is network connected. I have set up the print preferences (using the Windows Control Panel Devices and Features) so the default is Duplex printing; however, when I go to print from any Windows program (including Adobe Reader), the preferences box shows Duplex is not set per the default. If I change it to Duplex, it works fine - just curious why the Default Duplex setting isn't used.
Any ideas would be appreciated - and thanks for your help....

Duplex printing with the MG3150

I have a 36 page document which is A4 in size folding to A5 and I want to print it out as a finished file and I was wonderig if anyone has any information about the duplex feature with the Canon MG3150. Basically the printer is printing both sides of the document but its printing it upside down so the page numbers are not following in the correct order. I think it might have something to do with the 'print both sides' option but for some reason I cannont get this feature to highlight (its always in grey) Any ideas?

Hello designalien.
Unfortunately, we here at Canon USA are not familiar with the MG3150. It appears that this unit is available in Europe or the UK..
If the unit unit was purchased in Europe, please visit the following link for more information or assistance:

Duplex printing on Reader 8

Although I use the pulldown menu in the print window to indicate that I want to print a pdf document on both sides of the paper, the document prints on only one side. Is there some way I can print pdf documents opened in Reader 8 on both sides:
My Reader version is 8.1.3. I am running OS 10.4.11 on an iMac. My printer is an HP Photosmart 6280.

I looked around a bit but didn't see that duplex printing was an option with the 6280. The c6280 has it.
Are you sure you have that option?

Automatic duplex printing with DeskJet 6980dt with Windows 7, MS Office 2010

What do I need to do in order for my DeskJet 6980dt to automatically duplex print without manually inserting the paper? Prior to changing my OS from XP to W-7 the printer would duplex print when I changed the "properties" but since installing W-7 "properties" does not provide me with that option.

We have found that Microsoft Mail does not work with Windows 7 and MS Office 2010 combination.
When you try to configure it given error 0x8004110.
Windows 7 is a supported operation system for Office 2010. At what exactly point will you get the specific error?
Is that a Click-To-Run version of Office 2010? By default, for MSI-based version of Office, when you upgrade existing Office 2007 to Office 2010, the earlier version of Office will be removed:

HP Officejet J4500 duplex printing with Windows 8

I have an HP Officejet J4500 All-in-One printer that I purchased about 5 years ago when I was still using MS XP on an Off Brand computer. It worked fine and would print double-sided when I wanted to save paper on a larger print job. It would even show me on the PC moniter with an illustration when to turn the pages to do the back side printing. However, my old computer died last summer, so I upgraded to an HP computer (without the printer, since I had a good one already!), using the newest Windows 8 system. My problem is, the printer still woks perfectly EXCEPT for two-sided printing (and no helpful illustrations on the moniter!) How do I fix that? Do I need to re-install the printer wizard or do a Windows 8 upgrade for the printer?

Duplex printing with Designer 8 (not ES)

Hi,
I only have the Designer 8.0 that came with Adobe Design Standard CS3, so I don't have the "PDF Print Options" under "Form Properties". Is there any possiblity to set the DuplexMode anyway? I'm not used to coding, so I would be pleased for an easy to understand explanation, if it is possible via script.
Thanks.

HP Laserjet p2015d auto duplex printing with Windows 7 64 bit operating system

I have used the HP Laserjet p2015d with Windows 7 32 bit operating system and have been able to use the AUTOMATIC DUPLEX feature of the printer without problems.
Now, however, I have installed the 64 bit version of Windows 7 operating system and the AUTO DUPLEX does not work and is not shown as being available on the PROPERTIES menu of the printer.
Is it possible to use the AUTO DUPLEX feature of the printer with Windows 7 64 bit operating system.
All replies welcomed! Aaron in Calif.

Hi Aaron,
Make sure the Automatic Duplexing option is enabled:
Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
Right click the printer icon, then click Printer Properties.
Click the Device Settings tab.
Set the Automatic Two-Sided Duplex Accessory as installed and click OK to save the change.
Now Automatic Duplexing should become available.

Duplex printing with HP Color Laserjet 4650dn

Dear all,
I wanted to print the handouts of a Powerpoint presentation (Office for Mac 2008, v12.2.5), but could not get a double-sided copy. The printer (HP CLJ 4650 dn) is installed with the OS X 10.6.4 embedded drivers etc. as HP CLJ 4650. Works fine otherwise.
The settings for the printer in System Preferences/Print Fax/General indicate that I apparently have a driver version 16.4. By accessing the Printer Webpage I have set the duplex option ON and checked all the other options for there settings. As far as I know it seems correct.
I have ticked the box Duplex Unit in System Preferences/Print Fax/Driver.
However, when I want to print the slides/handouts and open the print window I can only see Manual Duplex as an option in the drop-down menu Copies & Pages. No straight forward Duplex Printing or Automatic Duplex Printing option whatsoever of which the printer is capable.
No problem with the two remaining MS Windows Vista PC's, which frustrates me.
Have I missed something? Or done something wrong/different?
If anyone has a suggestion I would be grateful.
Kind regards,
John Keasberry

Have you taken a look to the configuration of the Printer? I have a HP 2340 with duplex and to configure it I have to do the following:
On the Preferences Pane, click on Printing and Fax or open the Printer configuration Utility. In any case, click on the printer and choose "Configuration of the printer" (in the Printer utility this is in the pritner menu). Then you will see information of the printer... May be there you have an option to activate the duplex... In may case there is a checkbox.
But may be you have done this...
Bests,
Álvaro
