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 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 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.

  • How to print double-sided in AirPrint

    Hi All,
    I just purchased the NP LaserJet Pro CP 1525nw which is fully compatible with AirPrint. Printing works great. However, When I print to the HP and look at the Print Center it always says "Double-Sided Off". I tried tapping on it without success. Double Sided printing works fine from Windows.
    Is there a way to enable double sided printing on the iPad 2?
    Thanks in advance for any ideas.

    Alas, that page is no longer active.
    We have a Canon inkjet that does automatic duplex printing, but no duplex option shows up-- either under iOS 5.1.1 on an iPad or 6.1.2 on an iPad mini.
    Of course, it's not AirPrint certified, although it does work with the Mac add-ons Handy Print, etc.-- and it does show page numbers for certain sites and PDFs.
    Glad to hear that duplex printing would be an option if we upgrade printers.
    Have they added Print Preview yet?  That's a biggie as we often end printing gobs of pages from a web site and only want part of the page.

    You can't.

  • I'm looking for a good replacement printer to use with MacBook Pro. I currently have an Epson 610 Series.

    Hi,
    I've had a MacBook Pro since January 2013 and and Epson 610 series printer-scanner-fax for several years. I may be replacing the printer. For my purposes (printing some articles from the internet, Word documents, book reports, and some PHOTO QUALITY PICTURES) it has worked just fine. I was wondering if anyone could suggest a printer-scanner combo (it doesn't matter if it has a fax option or not) that is MAC friendly, user-friendly, can print photo quality pictures (I do not print them often), and is reasonably priced ($300.00)? Any and all help is sincerely appreciated! Thank you in advance!

    There's a list of manufacturers of AirPrint-enabled printers on the linked page. I don't have a specific recommendation. The good thing about AirPrint is that it works with OS X as well as iOS, and there's no software to install or keep updated. The printer must be connected to a network with its built-in interface.

  • How to print double sided in Win 8.1 similar to Win XP?

    Recently purchased Win 8.1 PC.  Installed my printer, a HP psc 1210.  All appears to work except unable to select "print both sides" as I was able to do on my old Win XP PC.  Noticed print properties in XP that Double Sided is marked 'Yes' while in Win 8.1 it is marked 'No'.

    Thanks Rashmi for your reply. Is there any other way to do so? Actually I am trying to automate the actions of an app where launching and subsequent exiting of an app is a test case. 
    No available command to allow you do this, I don't know if OEM have the permission

  • How to print double sided on Mac?

    The enable icon is shadowed and I can't click it to enable it.  using a HP Deskjet printer connected to USB

    This is the method I use for printing a 9-page manual. I have a printer that provides Face-down delivery of the finished pages.
    1) First, print the even pages oddly (in reverse order)
    2) -- then flip the output stack to the input tray, ready to print the reverse sides --
    3) Then print the odd pages evenly
    so after step 1, I have pages 8,6,4,2 face down in the output tray. I take that stack and move it to the input tray facing the right way to print the odd pages. Then pages 1,3,5,7,  are printed on the opposites side of the paper, and page 9 prints on a blank sheet. Pages are in the output tray in correct order, face down.
    The controls for doing this are on the "Paper Handling" pane of the standard Print dialog box, under Pages to Print {all, odd, even} and Page Order {Normal, Reverse}.
    If your printer provides face up delivery, you will have to draw yourself some little diagrams and figure out exactly where to change my procedure, or invent a comparable one for your situation. The advantage to the rhyme is that I don't have to try to find the stinkin' piece of paper with the little diagrams a year from now when I want to print two-sided again.
