LaserJet 1200SE - how to duplex print? - Windows Vista

Today the experts will tell me what to do to print on both sides of the paper with my 10 year old, and still working very well, LJ 1200. The software was apparently never updated to work with Vista. There had been a suggestion to use a generic driver, but I couldn't get it to work. - MisterMax

Hi MisterMax,
I don't have a LJ 1200 SE in front of me,but I was able to install the 'in-OS' print drivers for this printer and found something that may help you (your milage may vary).
I installed the HP LaserJet 1200 Series PS print driver on Vista, and opened the Printer Properties page;
- Go tot 'Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Printers' and Right-Click on the printer icon (HP LaserJet 1200 Series PS).
I looked in the 'Device Settings' tab, and found that under 'Installable Options' the 'Duplex Unit (for 2-sided Printing):' was defaulted to 'Not Installed'.
-Try changing this setting to 'Installed'; then Apply/Saving this setting and Ok out of this dialog.
Now, see if your print job allows you/offers you the Duplex print option.
..... Hope this helps.

The Radeon 9000 driver works for the Radeon 7500 card. I have successfully used it on a T43 with Vista Ultimate x86

Unfortunately no. The Radeon 9000 driver should bring your graphics score up to close to 2, but it will not get it high enough to enable Aero support.

How to duplex print pdf file on hp 1320 using upd pcl5 on windows 7 ?

I am running Windows 7 Professional (64bit), with a HP laserjet 1320 using driver HP UPD PCL5 (v5.5.0.12834), with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro v9.5.2 and MS Word 2010. When I print a Word 2010 file I can choose duplex printing (print on both sides) and everything works fine. However, when I open a PDF file, click FILE then PRINT then PROPERTIES the PRINT ON BOTH SIDES option shows "none" and no other option is shown. I searched Adobe support and it says duplex printing is controlled by the printer driver, not Adobe software. I have uninstalled & reinstalled the UPD PCL 5 driver two times already but still the same problem of not being able to choose duplex printing for any PDF document - yet it works for MS Word. Any ideas ? Thanks

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.

New Brother 52050DN printer. Can't figure out how to duplex print

I just got a Brother 5250DN printer. It says it's capable of duplex printing on PCs and Macs. I've installed all the latest drivers and still can't find anything that says duplex printing. The included docs only tell how to set up duplex printing on Windows XP.
Thx

HP LaserJet M1217 nfw MFP duplex printing mac

This printer prints duplex manually. Is there any way (as there is in Windows) to set printing to duplex so alternating pages print on one side and then paper is reinserted to complete duplex printing. Duplex option is grayed out in Word and other programs. Doing the job completely manually would be annoying.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Hi,
Try following the steps below and let me know if that helps:
From Word, open the Print dialog.
Click the Copies & Pages dropdown menu and select Layout.
Set Two-Sided as Lpng-Edge binding and click on Print.
If you cannot see the exact options, go to Printers & Scanners and click the Plus sign.
Select the M1217 printer and then click the Use drop down menu.
Be sure to select the printer model rather than the default AirPrint option and check for any difference.
Please let me know of any issue,
Shlomi

How to Upgrade from Windows Vista to Windows 7 on an iMac

I have Windows Vista already installed on my iMac. I would now like to upgrade to Windows 7. I wish to know how do I go about it. Can I upgrade to Windows 7 from within Windows Vista or do I need to go through Bootcamp like you do when you first install Windows on an iMac. I currently have the latest version of iOS installed on my iMac. Thank you for your help.

How do I install Windows Vista in my R500 that I just put a new hard drive into?

I was given an R500 that had the hard drive removed by the previous owner for security reasons. I bought a charger and a new hard drive and intended to install Windows Vista that I bought a while ago and never used. I charged up the battery. The battery is good. I installed the hard drive. I'm pretty sure I got that right. Then I turned on the laptop. I expected to see a menu giving me some hint as to what to do next but all I see is ThinkPad in big white letters and underneath "To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button." I stared at the screen for a while and then pushed the blue ThinkVantage button. Nothing happened. I opened the disc drive and put in the installation disk thinking that should bring up a menu. It didn't. Nothing happened.
I'm reasonably experienced with computers and have installed hardware and operating systems before but this has my stymied.
Anybody have any idea about how this is supposed to work?

Actually, I tried that and nothing worked. Couldn't get past the opening screen. Fortunately, I have several other Thinkpads of various models that I got for a few bucks each (without hard drives) from a business that was replacing all their laptops. I pulled the hard drive out and put it in another R500 and, after a few fits and starts, got Vista up and running and then found out that the touchpad was flakey and the mouse pointer would freeze. All the USB ports were broken so I couldn't use my wireless mouse. Out came the hard drive and my next try was in an R61. Funny thing. Vista opened right up but there's no touchpad on the R61. (You can tell I'm new to Thinkpads.) Took me a few minutes of scratching my head and googling to figure out that the red button moves the mouse pointer on the screen. Now I have one good one so far and I'll see how many of the others I can make work.
Thanks for your help.

How do I fix Windows Vista crashing after Lion 10.7.1 update

How do I install Windows Vista on my New Macbook Pro

I need to use DOS for work to fill out reports for my organization. I have the newest 15.4 macbook pro with intel core 2 duo. I want to know the exact steps to install windows vista on my computer?? please help me.

It depends on what you want to use Windows for, are you going to work mainly in Windows or OSX? Will you need to cross between the two and if so will restarting your computer be a pain?
I use Paralles, a copy of that is around $75 as far as I can remember.
Personally I had a copy of Windows XP so that was the first Windows OS I used with Paralles, then Vista came out so I though I would get a copy as it was supposed to be * the * Windows OS, when I installed Vista I was so dissapointed with it. I would go as far as say it is one of the ugliest OS's I have seen, I actually prefer XP, it's like the old space programs when you look at the sets, they made an effort but you can see the budget was low, it looks like a really poor effort at copying OSX but they didn't spend the money on doing it right.
Anyway, I just use XP so Vista for me was a waste of money. XP works faster and is more intuitive than Vista 'If Windows can be intuative that is'.
I also read out there that security in Vista isn't what it is cracked up to be.
Hope this helps.

How do I use Windows Vista with Lion?

Hi - I wonder if you can help. I want to use a copy of Windows Vista I have through Bootcamp but have recently upgraded to OS X Lion.
I understand Snow Leopard supported Vista and if I had installed Vista prior to upgrading it would continue to work even though I was running Lion - however having upgraded to Lion I now cannot install Vista thtough Bootcamp as the Windows Support Software for Lion only supports Windows 7 (and I don't want to spend the money for that!).
So my question is - can I reinstall Snow Leopard, install Vista on a Bootcamp partition and then reinstall Lion without having to pay for it again? Will reinstalling Snow Leopard destroy the Lion recovery partition? Or can I simply go back into the App Store and redownload Lion from my account as I have paid for it already and not having the recovery partition therefore doesn't matter?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

You can also keep Lion and Lion Recovery by installing it to an external drive.

Before upgrading to Lion, making a bootable clone would help avoid some problems.
Boot Camp 4.0 drivers are Windows 7 only.
I don't see that you can't just partition with BCA 4.01 and not install, then get out Vista (again?) and use your 10.6 DVD. You can still use Boot Camp 3.0->3.2.

How can i partition windows vista on macbook pro 13 inch (2011) with lion osx

So I just got a new macbook pro 13inch and installed lion on it. I want to get windows 7 on it but I only have a upgrade copy of it so I was wanting to install windows vista and then upgrade it to windows 7. Problem im having is bootcamp wont help since it says it needs to be windows 7 that i install so when im in vista i cant really get anywhere because it wont run the windows 7 utility exe. Any ideas?

You can't install Vista so you'll need a full copy of Windows 7 to install.

I am trying to download Itunes to A windows vista based computer. At the conclusion to the download is say'eroor occured' and loacks up. Nothing more can be done other that to start again

I assume that the app didn't come with an uninstaller application/script?
If you definitely want to trash it have a look in Activity Monitor and your Login items, as there may be something running in the background that is preventing it being trashed.
System Preferences>Users & Groups (or Accounts depending on OS), Login items tab and delete anything that pertains to the app you want gone.
Next, Utilities Folder>Activity Monitor, have a look to see if there is anything running with the name of the awkward app. Select it and click on the the big red 'quit process' button. Now try and trash it.
If you are still having trouble you could try downloading the free AppCleaner:
