How to print double sided using an HP photosmart printer

Follow the instructions for your Printer?
We don't even know which one, there must be hundreds of Photosmart models.

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Can you print double sided on a HP photosmart all in one plus e-B210a

Hi, I hope someone can help, I'm having trouble printing double sided on this printer, does anyone know how this can be done.

As best I can tell, this printer does not have automatic duplex printing available. You need to print the even pages, turn them upside down and reinsert them and print the odd pages, using Paper Handling in the Print dialog. You may need to print in reverse order when printing the even pages, as I recall. It has been a while since I had a printer without automatic duplexing. It is a feature which I insist upon.

Can't print double sided in Windows 7 & Officejet J6450

I am running windows 7 Home Premium
I am using Microsoft word 2010
I have an Officejet J6450 All-in-One
When I try to print double sided from within word, It prints the last page of the document, retrieves the paper, turns it over, spits it out and quits.
This is regardless of the number of pages in the document.
It is set to print all pages.
Any ideas?

Printing double sided odd number of pages

I have Adobe Reader 10.0.2 instalied on my iMac running Mac OS 10.6.7 with a Canon Pixma iP4200 printer. Since installing this version of Reader I have come across a curious problem with printing PDF files double sided with an odd number of pages.
For example, a three page PDF file printed double sided. The first page prints first, then pages 2 and 3 print double sided. This leaves a blank page on the reverse side of page 1 which is INCORRECT and has me puzzled. Normal double sided printing should have pages 1 and 2 back to back and page 3 with a blank page on the reverse.
All my other software on my iMac prints an odd numbered file double sided correctly. It is only Reader 10.0.2 that has this problem and would appreciate a solution.
Have I found a bug in the Reader software?.

Hello
I specially created a PDF of three pages with no page breaks or section breaks. The problem still persists no matter what way I set the printing order of the pages, that is automatic, normal or reverse when double sided printing. The same file in MS Word format prints perfectly.
My only solution at the moment is to add a blank page at the end of a PDF document that has an odd number of pages.
I would like to know if I have discovered a bug in Adobe Reader and is there a fix that I can download to solve the problem.

Printing double sided

Hi,
I just got a MacBook Pro and am finding I can't print double sided. My old PC prints double sided to the same printer (an HP LaserJet 4250dtn) so that shouldn't be a problem, but there doesn't seem to be an option in my Print window to print double sided at all (it does offer to print 2 pages on 1 page, but not with one page on each side). Do I need to download something to make this possible or is it simply not? Grateful for any help.

That's exactly what I TRY to do, however, I can't get Preview to actually FOLLOW those instructions. When I select the "Paper Handling" menu in the print dialog and choose either "print Odd pages only" or even only, I still get the whole darn range printed! This sometimes works and sometimes doesn't and I don't know until the wrong pages come out and ruin the already printed other sides that I have put in the manual feed tray.
Doing a print preview onscreen before printing never helps either as that ALWAYS comes out with all pages showing, not matter what range I put in the dialog box. I don't know if this is a problem with my printer (Brother MFC-8840DN, connected by both USB and ethernet) or with Preview. I don't seem to have this problem with Acrobat Reader though.

How you enable double-sided printing can depend on the applications from whick you wish to print. Example: if I print to my HP PhotoSmart from Safari, I get this print dialog box:
(Edit: OOPS! Note that I forgot to switch printers when i took the scene-shots, so ignore the "Brother" reference. It's should look the same for your HP.
Note the selection labled "Safari" near the bottom. If I change that form "safari to "Layout: I get this:
Note the option for two-sided printing appears for your selection. If I print from Word, the box is different:
The "Copies & Pages" option can be changed to "Layout" when you click it, again allowing the selection of two-sided printing.
If you tell us what applciaiton is vexing you, we may be able to give better-focused information.

Everything I send to eprint (using google cloud print) prints double sided. How do I stop this?

Everything I send to eprint (using google cloud print) prints double sided. How do I stop this? I'm using an HP Officejet Pro 8600
thanks,

Hello kanataorganics,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see that when you use ePrint, via Google Cloud printing, the documents are printed two-sided. Are you using a computer, mobile device, Chromebook, etc, to access the printer?
If you print from a computer, for example, not using Google Cloud print or ePrint, does it print two-sided on its own?
You can check the Eco setting on the printer's front panel to ensure that the two-sided options are set to "Off".
Check to make sure the printer has the most recent updates installed on the printer, Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates.
Cheers,

This function is related to the printer driver and the printer you use. If you do not give details, nobody can suggest a solution. Usually, the correct driver solves the issue.

How to print double sided from my Mac to my Canon MG6350

I have looked up everywhere on the internet and youtube of how to print double sided from my Mac Book Pro. I am using OSX 10.8.5.
All of the dicussions I have looked up before have told me to go to System Preferences>Print & Scan>Options & Supplies> Driver and then tick the little box that comes up and it will allow you to print double sided. I have tried doing this but THERE IS NO DRIVER TAB!!!
I was just wondering if there was a solution to this as I can print double sided from my other appliences, like the PC and iPad, it is just my Mac Book Pro that doesn't work.
It has become a big problem for me as I'm studying at college and I need to print things double sided quite regularly. I really need this to work.

The print dialog has several drop-down menus, one of which initially shows the name of the application you're printing from. If the printer supports duplex, you can choose
Duplex Printing & Margin
from that menu. You should then see a checkbox marked
Automatic Duplex Printing

How to print double sided with macbook pro on Samsung CLX-3180?

Hi,
I recently switched to using a macbook pro but cannot figure out how to print double sided/two-sided.
The printer I am using is Samsung CLX-3180 and it allows double-sided printing. I was able to do this with my windows computer previously.
The frustrating thing is that I see the two-sided feature but I cannot figure out how to turn it on. There is no option to change it.
It is listed here.
First, I go to "show presets."
Then, I click on "copies & pages" but I cannot turn it on.
Does anyone know how to turn it on?
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi nat.the.musical,
If you are having issues selecting two-sided printing from the Print window, you may find the following article helpful (it is aimed at Mountain Lion, but should also apply to Mavericks):

How to print double sided on Canon MG5400 series?

I have tried to tick the duplex option under the printer driver tab but this only prevents the document from being printed! I am trying to print double sided from my mac mini... I am currently using a printer cable as I have no network available; when I printed using my ipad and the wifi facility, double sided printing wasn't an issue...

My first thought would be it isn't do to whether you are using cable or wifi to connect. ... Could be on though.
Have you looked on the internet site & seen if there is a more recent driver? wag.
