  • OfficeJet Pro L7590 and two-sided printing

    Anyone been able to implement 2 sided printing with this printer. Seems like HP driver is broken, even though print setup allows one to check two-sided printing.

    This may help in regards to this two sided issue. I did have some orientation problems on landscape mode but was able to print two sided. After hours of working between HP and Apple etc. I in theory figured out something that proved to work. HP's web driver page warns of not trying to use 10.5 drivers and programs on Snow Leopard. My theory was that in the upgrade process to 10.6 could there be some problems in the process of changing out the drivers and programs, (some programs are even said not to work at all by HP in S.L.). So I did a complete uninstall of all HP printer programs, software and drivers and then reinstalled the printer fresh in Snow Leopard. Wonder of wonders now the two sided printing works properly and the needed adjustments are all back. In a few different places but they are there and they do work. So maybe the problem exists in the upgrade process? I did not have the problems at all in 10.5 but after the upgrade everything changed. Now that it is more like a fresh install in SL all seem to work. The only thing I have not done yet is use the scanner process which HP admits is very different but they do give instructions about it on the driver download page. Hope this helps someone else.

  • Macbook and two-sided printing

    I have a macbook from 2006 (serial # 4H62**U9E) and I have a Lexmark printer (S605). I am trying to print lecture notes from my computer. When I hit print and the print frame is displayed the option that says "two-sided" is gray and I cannot turn it on. Does anyone have any idea how to change the settings on my computer so that the option to print double sided is available? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Your printer must, a. support two-sided printing; and, b. must be equipped with duplexing hardware. If you don't have both then you must print one side then place the printed pages back in the feeder tray - orientation and up side is important - to print the other side.

  • Canon MP500 and two-sided printing

    Hi all,
    I have bought a Canon MP500, when I try to print something, Two-Sided options (off, long-edged binding, short-edged binding) in the Layout menu, aren't selectable.
    Googling I found this is a "common" problem, tried some workarounds (like configure 2-sided printing in CUPS panel at http://127.0.0.1:631) but nothing works.. any suggestion ?

    According to Canon support, their printers use Duplex Printing & Margin rather than Layout in the Print dialog. It is lower down in the list.

  • HP Deskjet 970cxi two sided printing

    I've got an HP Deskjet 970cxi printer connected to a print server on my LAN.
    I'm able to print to it from Leopard with no problems. Just works with the Leopard "HP Deskjet 970C - Gutenprint v5.1.3 drivers".
    However, I can't figure out how to enable the duplex unit in the Leopard drivers.
    When I goto the layout settings in the printer driver the "two sided" printing option is grey out.
    How can I tell the drivers that I have a duplex unit to enable this option?
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    I have the same printer connected to a D-Link DP-300U print server. I get full access to the printer's settings, including duplex and photo settings, by using the HPIJS driver, which is an open source driver put out by HP. You can find a link to the OS X version of the driver at:

  • How do I select two-sided printing on LaserJet Pro 200 Color?

    How can I print documents with two-sided printing with LaserJet Pro 200 color printer. I have Mac )S X 10.10 Yosemite.

    Hi @jleo ,
    I see that you would like to know how to select the two-sided printing. I would be happy to help you, but I will need some more information.
    What is the full name and product number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Are you using the Full Feature HP Software and Drivers or the Apple Update drivers?
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    Depending which printer you have and what drivers you are using, usually from the application you are printing from, go to File, Print, click on the Layout in the dropdown and you might have one also listed for Manual Duplex option, you should be able to select the two-sided setting there.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • Two sided printing from a Macbook Air

    I switched from a Thinkpad to a Macbook and got a new HP laserjet 1102 wireless printer (because my old one that I used with my Thinkpad died).  I cannot figure out how to get set up to print 2-sided.  It was so easy on the Thinkpad.  Help!

    Hi,
    Follow the steps below to print a manual two-sided print jobs:
    From the file used to print click the File menu and select Print.
    NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Press on Show Details to show any available print option.
    Click the lowest selection box listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
    Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
    Select Manual Duplex and set the optios accordingly.
    If you are not being prompt to reload the page place the printed pages faced down in the inpuf tray, then open and close the top cartridge access door to resume the print job and complete the other side.

  • Two-sided printing and booklets (HP D2360)

    I am trying to do two-sided printing and booklets with an HP DeskJet D2360 printer. I installed on my MacBook the software I downloaded from hp.com. The printer was correctly identified even before I installed its driver.
    I am trying to print web pages, ODT documents, and PDFs documents from Preview, either two-sided or as booklets. The booklet printing option appears nowhere, while the two-sided printing option is grayed-out. Both options show up and work properly under Windows XP.

    1. If the form is a oure XFA form then you can control the duplex printing settings in the Master Pages. You may need to define a second Master page that has the duplex printing on for the appropriate pages.
    2. Yes having a checkbox indicate a value in another field is possible but you will need script to do it. On the chanege event of the checkbox you want checked you can add code like this:
    if (this.rawValue == 1){
         numericFieldName.rawValue = 100.00
    } else {
         numericFieldName.rawValue = 0.00;

  • HP OfficeJet j6480, Duplex (Two-sided) printing, adobe, and "default"

    I've been through many of the duplex printing posts, and can't find an answer that works.
    The system:
    A MacBook Pro running 10.5.6 with the latest HP printer drivers (1.1.1 as per
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/HPPrinter_Driver_1_11 )
    A HP OfficeJet j6480 connected over the wireless network (or via USB, it doesn't
    seem to matter).
    The problem:
    1. Duplex printing from MS Word only works if I click the "Two-Sided Printing"
    option in the print dialog +every time+ I print: saving the print setup
    configuration doesn't retain the two-sided setting. But at least duplex
    printing works in Word -- if somewhat awkwardly.
    2. In all programs with a print dialog box, the "two-sided printing" choice
    selector in the [Layout] panel is greyed out.
    3. In Acrobat Reader and in Firefox, two sided printing just doesn't work
    at all. No matter what the settings.
    I've tried the hpijs drivers as well -- the 3.9.2 version did no good at all.
    (From http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs#More_Info .)
    HP support was a little less than useless -- not only did they not solve
    the problem, they made me late for dinner. sigh.

  • The print menu on my MacBook Air won't allow me to select two sided printing, how do I do this?

    Hi Community,
    I recently purchased a MacBook Air (my very first Mac) and I cannot access all of the printing options when I print.  I am able to print and the printer driver was downloaded, but my options are limited.  I cannot enable two sided printing, which is something I was able to do with my current printer via my old laptop.  I am in grad school and have a lot of journal articles to print and read that are 60-70 pages each.  I'd much rather print these two sided to save paper.  I have the latest version of OS X (version 10.8.5) and my printer is an HP Laser Jet P2035n. 
    Can anyone help me fix this issue so I don't have to use my old laptop to print?
    Thanks,
    Melissa

  • HP LaserJet P1005 Two-sided printing not working on network

    Good day!
    I have a desktop, with Windowx XP, to which my LaserJet P1005 is connected via USB. My wife has a laptop, with the same Windows XP, from which she can print, but the two-sided option does not work right. She can check it and print, but the window to restart printing for the second side does not open and there is nothing we can do at this point.
    I have trie duninstalling the printer from both computers and reinstalling the newest drivers, it still won't work.
    Thanks for your help!

    I have an HP PhotoSmart 2575 All-in-One with the latest HP driver that displays the two-sided printing option greyed-out in the Layout window. According to HP, your printer must be capable of accepting an optional two-sided printer tray to work on a Mac. To me that is ludicrous since in Windows the driver supports manual two-sided printing.
    To get around this, I select the Paper Handling window and from the Pages to Print drop-down list select Odd only instead of the default All Pages. After clicking the print button the odd pages print starting with the last page and ending with the first. I then remove all paper and reinsert the printed pages with the top of the page facing the printer. First, though, I reorder the pages with the first page on the bottom and the last page on top. If the total number of pages is an odd number, I remove the last page from the inserted stack, as that is the very last printed page. I then select Even only from the Pages to Print drop-down list and click print again.
    Problem solved.

  • Problem with HP 1220c USB printer - two-sided print greyed-out

    My client has a Powerbook G4 550MHz with Tiger 10.4 installed and I installed the latest HP 1220c driver.
    When my client attempted to configure the printer via the printer setup page under 'layout' the two-sided print is greyed-out. Why?
    My client has admin rights.

    The layout of the print window is not the same as OS 9.x and prior. There will not be a choice for double sided printing as there was pre OS X unless the printer comes with an automatic duplexer.
    You will have to figure out how to print odds and evens in separate jobs and do it manually.

  • HP Photosmart c3180 Two-sided Printing

    I have been advised by HP support that it is not possible to use the two-sided printing feature on this printer with Mac, although it works perfectly on my PC. Does anyone know of a way to enable this feature on Mac or some workaround?

    One way to do this would be to run Windows in Parallels or some other partition environment, and print from Windows on your Mac.

  • HP L7760 two-sided printing not working

    I have an HP Officejet Pro L7760 which does two-sided printing, or it did until I upgraded from 10.5.2 to 10.5.5. I have reset the printer system, downloaded & installed the latest printer software from HP. I called HP. I called Apple.
    I see the Apple website says the latest HP printer driver is 1.1.1. When I bring up Print & Fax, it says my printer driver is 2.3.1.
    Does anyone know how to get back the two sided printing? Which driver version is correct? Any thing I can try?

  • How to STOP default two sided printing

    I have a macbook air (2013) and a Canon 8350 all in one laser printer...it ALWAYS defaults to two sided printing and I NEVER want to print two sided as I print for business and have no use for it...I often forget to uncheck it and thus end up wasting paper and ink.
    I have looked through all the settings and cannot figure out how to get it to NOT default to two sided printing. I know I can save the settings, however it doesn't default to that new profile, so I would have to select the profile every time to change it, which makes no sense as a solution (I still have to remember to do it EVERY TIME).
    Anyone know of a way to stop this behavior?

    You can change the default via CUPS, which is the core printing system of OS X.
    Open Safari and enter the following URL
    http://localhost:631
    By default on 10.8, access to the CUPS page is blocked. To enable it, open Terminal and type "sudo cupsctl WebInterface=yes" (without the quotation marks). Enter the admin password when prompted and then refresh the Safari view.
    With the CUPS web page open, select the Printers tab and then select the printer you want to modify. Then from the Administration drop menu, change to "Set Default Options".
    This will show a new page with four menu headings (links); Options Installed, General, Banners and Policies. Select General.
    Scroll down the list until you see the Print Style menu. Change it from 2 Sided to 1 Sided and then scroll down the page until you see the Set Default Options button.
    Click on this button to save the change. You will then be prompted to authenitcate to CUPS.
    Enter the account name and password that has been set as the admin for this Mac. And then press the Log In button. You will then see another page stating that the information change is completed.
    You can now check that the change has been successful by selecting to print this page from Safari. With the correct printer selected, change to the relevant menu to ensure your modification has worked.
