Missing duplex option

 I've a brand new Photosmart 6520, and attemps to print duplex from my iMac (OS X 10.9.5), fail. Settings shown are General/Ink level/Tools, while the tab Options is missing. Calling HP's Technical support in Norway two days ago were to no avail. Any suggestion?

Hi,
Please follow the steps below in order to automatically print two-sided print jobs:
Open the file you intend to print, from the File menu select Print. The Print window appears.
NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.
In the expanded Print window you will find next to Copies the checkbox for Two-Sided. Check the box.
NOTE: If the checkbox does not appear within the specific application print dialog, skip this step.
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 Layout from the drop-down menu.
Set the Two-Sided option as Long-Edge binding (Portrait), or Short-Edge binding (landscape).
If you do not find such options, open System Preferences > Printers & Scanner and click the plus sign.
Select the pritner, then click the Use drop down menu and select the printer model rather than the default AirPrint option.
You may save the settings for future use by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset... Any used preset will remain default till another preset will be used.

  • Missing print options - Canon MP600 and ????

    Well I discovered the hard way another function deleted in SL!
    I have a Canon MP600 multifunction unit. Now when I go to print, I can NOT specify certain pages to print such as 1, 3, 7, 10. In Tiger & Leopard I could.
    I finally found the option for printing all even or all odd pages under "Paper Handling". This helps but this means I have to switch to another screen to get that option. And why there instead of under instead of "Duplex Printing and Margin", a more logical place for the even or odd selection if not on the main page.
    Also missing is the option to just print the current page.
    For one document I wanted to print, I selected the pages one-by-one on the first page of the printer dialogue by selection a range of say 3 to 3.
    Is this all the SL printer driver? Will the old Leopard driver work? If so how do I get it back?

    I agree with Todd. You must have been using Office or Acrobat or some other application that provided this feature. The Preview application included with 10.6 has exactly the same print options as that provided with 10.5.

    The Duplex Printing menu is provided by Canon. It is known as a PDE (Print Dialog Extension). When you think about, if the printer can print duplex then you usually don't want to print odd or even pages. This is more suited for printers that have no duplex option, where you would need to print one side then reload and print the other - hence it being provided by Apple and not the vendor.
    Also missing is the option to just print the current page.
    Preview does have an additional menu under File called 'Print Selected Page'.
    For one document I wanted to print, I selected the pages one-by-one on the first page of the printer dialogue by selection a range of say 3 to 3.
    That was also the case with Preview on 10.5. So again, you must be referring to a particular application that had print current page. BTW - if it was Acrobat you were using on 10.5 then this is still available with 10.6.
    Is this all the SL printer driver? Will the old Leopard driver work? If so how do I get it back?
    No. The issues you are mentioning appear to be application specific. As for installing the Leopard driver on 10.6, I don't believe the driver v5.8.3 for 10.5 and earlier can be used on 10.6. In testing the installation of the v5.8.3 driver on 10.6, it did appear to install but without an MP600 to connect to I cannot be certain it will work. So you may need to test this yourself. But that said, I don't believe the v5.8.3 driver will give you back the settings you want...

  • Missing PDF Options in Acrobat Pro 8

    For some reason, on some machines in the office "PDF Options" is missing when we try to print to the Adobe PDF 8.0 printer under OS X 10.4.10. Both machines are Intel-based.
    Two of the machines in the office have the option, two don't.
    We thought it was something specific to these machines. Then yesterday, on a brand new MacBook Pro, we reinstalled a user's license from the DVD and the same thing happened: no PDF Options. This machine had been used for two days. Microsoft Office 2004 installed, Firefox and that's it - otherwise bog standard. Never had an Adobe product on it, never had Acrobat on it. Updated to 8.1.1, no change.
    We've tried completely uninstalling, trashing all the Adobe and Acrobat-related items in /Library and ~/Library, same with prefs. We've searched the entire machine for any string that includes 'adobe' or 'acrobat' and trashed them, emptied the trash, restarted, then reinstalled (re-serialising in the process). We've reset the printing system and added the printers back.
    We've cleaned the cache files (using AppleJack, a great little utility), repaired permissions, reinstalled the 10.4.10 Combo Updater, DiskWarriored the machine.
    We're tearing our hair out, because in our office, this option is vital to the daily work flow.
    Is anyone else seeing this? Anyone got a reliable fix?

    I "think" that there may be a way to correct this, but it's at your own peril if it doesn't. Then again what have you got to lose? Here is something from another public forum. It's about Acrobat 6.x and 7.x but it sounds like the same issue. If you decide to try this and it works let us know.

    Re: Acrobat 7 Pro: missing PDF Options menu in all applications
    Hi all,
    I solved this error with Acrobat 7 by deleting the com.adobe.print.AdobePDF7 folder from the user library preferences. It may be missed by those who are deleting preferences because it is not grouped with the com.adobe.acrobat.xxx.plist files.
    The equivalent folder for Acrobat 6 is called com.adobe.print.AdobePDF located in the users home library preference folder.
    I hope this helps.
    Best,
    John"

  • Missing Menu Options in Flash Builder

    I encountered a mystery surrounding several missing menu options in  one of my Flash Builder workspaces recently. I wanted to create a new  skin for a List control so I right-clicked on my skins folder and looked  for the New MXML Skin option. And I looked. And I looked some more. But  it wasn't there.
    I happened to have another copy of Flash Builder open in another  workspace so I gave it a try in that project. Sure enough, the New MXML  Skin option was there along with a couple of other options that were  missing in the first workspace. Here's a list of the menu options  missing from the File --> New menu in this workspace:
    Flash Professional Project
    MXML Item Renderer
    MXML Skin
    I'm not sure why those menu options went missing but I was able to  work around it by recreating the workspace. I simply created a new  workspace, copied all of the projects into the new workspace folder and  then imported all of my projects into the new folder. I then had a full  set of menu items.
    I poked around a bit trying to figure out what went wrong but wasn't  able to find a conclusive answer. My best guess is that it has something  to do with the fact that I was previously running the Flex 4 beta and  that's when I created the workspace with the problem. I compared the  workspace .metadata folder and, curiously, there were 25 folders inside  the .plugins folder for the problem workspace but only 12 for the newly  created one.

    This is an eclipse thingy, menus get cached in the workspace' metadata. If you try using a newer build of Flash Builder with a workspace from the previous version, you may notice this behavior.
    The workaround is to create a new workspace and import all projects there.

  • I am missing Insert options in Dreamweaver CS6. Where do I find header and navigation?

    I am missing Insert options in Dreamweaver CS6. Where do I find header and navigation?

    A lot changed between DWCS6 and DWCS6 Cloud. You need to make sure you are using tutorials/resources built for Version 12.0x.
    IIRC, "Structure" is the new name for "Layout"
    Dreamweaver Help | Removed features | Dreamweaver CC
    EDIT: Development of the perpetual license version of DWCS6 has stopped. There is no way to add that into the version of the program you have. To get those options, you would need a Cloud Subscription where you can get DWCS6 Cloud, DWCC and DWCC2014.x (all three can be installed at the same time, they just won't run at the same time).

  • Missing imovie options in File Analyze Video

    How do I enable the "People Finder" option in iMovie '11?  When I select "File" the only option for analysis is "Analyze for Stabilization".  I don't know if I am missing other options, too.
    Checking this thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/12472264#12472264), I verified I DO have the "Show Advanced Tools" enabled.

    That indicates where the problem reside.
    A. reg downloading iMovie - Have no idea - my are on a iLife DVD
    B. BUT - try this first
    • Start a new User account
    • Log into this
    • Now try iMovie
    If the tools are OK here - then the problem to 99.5% resides in a bad pref file
    If so - You need to trash MORE
    • Delete iMovie pref. file
    iMovie pref. file resides.
    Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/ "Your account" /Library/Preferences
    and is named. (one or more of these)
    com.apple.iMovie.plist
    com.apple.iMovie3.plist
    com.apple.iMovie7.plist
    com.apple.iMovie8.plist
    com.apple.iMovie9.plist
    com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    and find
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
    Now restart iMovie.
    If You run Mac OS X.7 or more - then the Library in the User-account folder is invisibly and need to be set to be viewable. IT IS NOT in the Library on Root level (when opening MacintoshHD - first window = root level)
    ( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter: chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )
    or - do like this.
    On the Finder window at the top left of the screen,
    Hold down the Option key and clicked on Go.
    This allowed You to see the Library folder and select it.
    Then keep the Option button pressed down in order to see and select the Library folder.
    Once found it, You are able to navigate to the iMovie preferences file and move it to the trash.  iMovie then start’s up fine!

  • Missing Job Options

    Sorry if this has been asked before, but a search does not seem to turn up much.
    I'm missing job options on Adobe Distiller 9 Pro. Here are my stats:
    G5 1.8ghz, 4gb RAM OSX 10.4.11.
    Acrobat 9.1.3 Pro
    We just purchased this upgrade yesterday, downloaded and installed. Previously we had Acrobat 6.0 Pro. My problem is that anytime I start Adobe Distiller I get only two joboptions: PDFX1a 2001.joboptions and PDFX3 2002.joboptions.
    All other joboptions do not show. I can see the rest of the job options in the following location: Macintosh HD>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe PDF>Settings
    I have tried fixing/changing permissions. I have tried deleting this folder. When I delete, Adobe Distiller recreates all job options, but I still cannot see more than the 2 previously mentioned job options. I can delete the following folder which Adobe Distiller recreates: Macintosh HD>Users>~username>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe PDF>Settings. This folder is empty when created. I can copy job options to that folder; Adobe Distiller still only sees 2 job options.
    When saving a new job option in to either location I get an error. If I save to the desktop and copy into either location Adobe Distiller will then recognize the new job option. Someone else on another forum had  a similar issue which is how I was able to find out that I could save and move.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to force Adobe Distiller to recognize these missing joboptions? I would really rather not have to recreate them if I don't have to.
    Additional info that I think may be pertinent to this:
    I suspect that this is a permissions issue related to the following: My user account is a network account. We have a Windows 2003 SBS server running Active Directory. Our usernames (and therefore shortnames) are standard. First Name period Last Name. Ie., Erik.Youngren   I have Acrobat 9 Pro installed on my PB G4, but my user account here is a local account with no period in the shortname. No issues on the PB.
    But if this is the case, why would Distiller then see the newly created joboptions when copied into the Settings folders?
    I'm out of ideas!

    Well. For anyone else who may run across this issue. Further googling came up with someone else's issue on Windows, whereby installing Acro 9 while earlier versions of Acrobat were still on the HD led to incompleteness and instability.
    Actually. That's a windows only thing. You can run all the versions you want on a Mac.
    The fix must have had something to do with the reinstall.
    Actually, there is one exception Graf.
    if you have multiple versions of Acrobat installed, you may run into a problem where two or more copies of the AdobePDF Driver file installed. The problem stems from the fact because of the way Adobe names the AdobePDF with such names as AdobePDF 7.123 and adobePDF 8.056 and so on it has a a unique name and therefore is added to Print driver list. But when its shown in the Printer list you have something like :
    AdobePDF 9.0
    AdobePDF 8.0
    HEWLET-PACKARD DESKJET 990CSE
    LABELWRITER 400
    the problem arises in regardless of which one you choose you end up making double copies of the PDF. I've had this happen to myself.
    the cure is to remove any and all versions of AdobePDF from Printer Utility, then Open the newest version of acrobat and have it repair installation. (Install the Adobe PDF Driver).
    All older versions can use the newer version because it has all the new features plus all the old features. However, while an older version may work any features that came out after will not work.

  • Dictionary missing all options but Wikipedia

    I just installed Leopard on my iMac G5 and Powerbook G4. Both Dictionaries are version 2.0. On the iMac I have 4 dictionary choices (New Oxford, Oxford Thesaurus, Apple, and Wikipedia), whereas on the Powerbook there is just Wikepedia, which only works when online.
    Any ideas why this difference, given the identical upgrade?
    Thanks much,
    John

    Thanks. I just tried updating Quicktime and you were right that I did need to update. But unfortunately it has not solved the problem. I am still missing all options for encoding in DVD. Media Encoder also failed to export .h264 for Vimeo this morning - created some very messy-looking files. I'm not sure what is going on, but I'd love it if someone could help me fix it. I'm (of course) in the middle of a big project and supposed to deliver in DVD.
    Thanks

  • Cannot enable cp1160 duplex option in Windows 7

    Having finally managed to connect to my cp1160 (Tip: connect it direct to USB first and let Win 7 install drivers - then you can connect to it when it is attached to, and shared from, an XP machine on your network) I now find that I can not make use of itsautomatic duplex unit to print double-sided.
    I have tried the not-so-obvious, and looked at the printer properties, Device Settings dialog, but the only Installable Options available there are "Allow manual duplexing" and "Activate the Hardware Auto-Off feature" - no mention of the Automatic duplex unit!
    A correspondent on the MS TechNet boards suggests that HP have "obsoleted" this printer, so the Win7 driver doesn't support this feature. Surely this must just be a few characters that have been missed out of some INI file or Registry Setting? The printer is listed as fully compatible with Windows 7, after all.
    Any ideas?
    Will

    Here's the solution for enabling duplex printing (enabling the installation of the duplexer). The key is using the HP Business Inkjet 1200 driver.
    This assumes you have  loaded a new driver for the local cp1160 on  Win7 (it might happen automatically when you connect the printer to your PC/laptop). Otherwise, add the driver by searching HP products for cp1160.
    1. Select Start --> Devices and Printers
    2. Right click the cp1160 icon
    3. Select Printer Properties --> Advanced --> New Driver
    4. A wizard takes over. Find the HP Business Inkjet 1200 and select it.  (Manufacturer: HP).
    5. When finished with the wizard, click the printer icon from Devices and Printers, selecting
    Properties --> Device Settings.
    6. Make sure that Automatic Duplexing is marked as installed.
    Now you can print duplexed to a local cp1160, using Windows 7.
