Duplex Printing with subreports - Help!

Post Author: Gretchdv
CA Forum: General
I'm having trouble getting the final section of my report to print correctly for 2 sided printing. The trouble comes when I have not only forced a new page, but also reset the page number. Because the page number is being reset, it is no longer a reliable reference point to know if the report will print on the front or the back of the paper. I must reset the page number in order for the report to print correctly! Does anyone have any ideas? The details of my report are below:I have a report with multiple subreports. The final subreport must always print on the front side of a new sheet of paper and must start on page 1. In the section that comes just before, I selected "New Page After" and "Reset Page Number". This caused situations where the final section was printed on the back of the previous section. I removed the Reset Page Number setting mentioned above and inserted a section below. Then I inserted a new page after if the page number is even and always reset the page number. Everything works great in this scenario except the page number is not reset for my final section because it is printing on the same page as the section just before it. Any suggestions would be much appreciated! I think I could make it work if I could preserve the last page number from the previous subreport being printed and then make decisions based on that page number, but I cannot get it to persist in a global variable. HELP!

Okay, I figured it out! Here's the solution:The report has 3 footer sections:Report Footer a - contains a subreport and the section is set as follows: "New Page After" is checked, "Keep Together" is checked, "Reset Page Number After" is checked with the conditional formula - "Remainder(pagenumber,2) = 0;"Report Footer b - is empty and the section is set as follows: "New Page After" is checked with conditional formula - "Remainder(pagenumber,2) = 0;", "Reset Page Number After" is checked and "Keep Together" is checked.Report Footer c - contains the final subreport and the section is set as follows: "Keep Together" is checked. The result: If report footer a ends on an odd page (printed on the front of the paper), 2 pages breaks are inserted causing report footer c to be printed on the front of the next piece of paper as page number 1. If report footer a ends on an even page (printed on the back of the paper), 1 page break is inserted causing report footer c to be printed on the front of the next piece of paper as page number 1.

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.

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.

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?

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.

HP Pro 200 M276nw Color Printer Duplex printing with Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10

So, I have been trying to use the duplex printing feature with my Mac. However, I havne't been able to figure it out. I see the option for manual duplex printing, but the actual duplex printing feature is not working.
Any advice?

Hi @joshcooley09 ,
I see that you are experiencing issues duplexing from Yosemite. I will certainly do my best to help you.
Did you download and install the latest software for Yosemite for the printer?
HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M276 Full Feature Software and Drivers.
Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. Make sure it shows just the printer's name.
Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen it should show the printer's name. (Laserjet M276)
If the full printer name isn't listed correctly, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
Now try and print two sided.
On the File menu, click the Print option.
Open the Finishing menu, and click the Manual Duplex tab or open the Manual Duplex menu.
Click the Manual Duplex box and select a binding option.
Click the Print button. Follow the instructions in the pop-up window that appears on the computer screen before replacing the output stack in Tray 1 for printing the second half.
If the issue persists, connect the printer to the Mac by a USB cable and test the printer. Just to rule out a network issue, if the printer is networked.
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a nice day!

Booklet / Duplex printing with cover

Using MS Word 2010 and have successfully used bookfold to print in landscape, 2 pages per sheet and in duplex mode. 36 pages printed on 9 sheets ( 4 x 9 =36)
Word prints from inside, ie center pages and finishes with the cover. after re inserting the copies for duplex, the printing is finished leaving a booklet ready to fold and staple. No rearranging pages, hassle free and all in order.
This printer has only one tray. Till now I have counted out my 8 sheets and then slipping in the cover page at the bottom, making it the 9th sheet. I want to avoid this strategy of counting out the sheets.
In printer properties--> paper/quality, there is a special pages option. The options are covers and print pages on different paper. I am trying to learn how to use this option.
My goal is to manually feed the cover stock, print on the cover, and automatically print the other sheets. By manually feeding the cover, the program has to count out the 8 sheets of regular paper.. Recognizing that page setup may require different selections to accomplish the printing. What would the selections now have to be?
So to start the printing, manually feed in the cover, print on regular paper, then flip on short edge to complete duplex printing.
Or
print the first x number of sheets, manually request insertion of the cover as the last sheet, and then flip for the duplex printing.
How does Word define "cover" when I think of "cover" just like the paper jacket on a book.
So the request is how to get Word to ask to load one sheet of cover stock and automatically print the remaining sheets..
Looking forward to suggestions, Thanks all

Hi @Artierose ,
I see by your post that you would like to be able to print the cover page and then the rest of the document duplexed.
I can help you.
I have provided the manual for additional information you may look over. LASERJET PRO 200 COLOR.
Have a nice day!

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?

Hello there bevspets, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
I saw your post about not being able to duplex print on Windows 8 with your OJ J4500 series. I would suggest running the HP Print and Scan Doctor
to start, which should correct printing or scanning issues for you. If there is more of a serious issue, it will alert you to what it is.

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

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.

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:
