No Duplex printing (canon mp830) on mac os x v10.6.

How can I configure this?  Updating the driver file to the latest version from canon failed.
I can not get access to the printer setting like Duplex Printing.  Post Script printers usually have a lot of settings, but I don't see any. 
Print Center is no longer available on Mac OS X v10.6.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
smkilcoyne

Hi,
It seems as the printer is not supported in any Macintosh envoirnment..
Check page 98 of the user guide, only Windows operating systems are listed within the system requirements:

  • Laser Jet CP1025nw: Duplex printing not available from Mac

    I just bought a new HP Laser Jet CP1025nw printer and have installed it for wireless use. When trying to print from my Mac (OS X 10.9.3) the option for (manual) duplex printing is not showing up (greyed out) in the print dialogues in applications (e.g. Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat Pro). 
    How can I get duplex printing workingfrom my Mac?
    Thank you!

  • Duplex printing by default on Macs

    Is there any way to make adobe reader 10.1.1 print duplex by default on my Mac?  At present each time I print something I need to go through the printing options, select printer, and then modify the option to duplex.  This is annoying, and only happens on adobe products as far as I can tell.
    Considering I sometimes print multi-hundred page documents, getting simplex when I don't expect it is f-n annoying.
    If there isn't anyway to do this by default right now, is there a way to suggest gently that they fix it?
    thanks
    Joel

    I can't help but wonder why Adobe doesn't respond to this - at this point there are 464 views of this item and still no answer. I have the same problem and it's a big irritation to have to set the duplex mode everytime I want to print!

  • Duplex printing on Canon MG6150

    Hey everyone,
    I recently bought a Canon Pixma MG6150 printer which comes with automatic duplex printing. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    I want to use it in InDesign to create a booklet however, whenever I go into Print Settings>Printer>Duplex Printing & Margin everything is greyed out.
    I've tried all the drivers I can find on the Canon website and the CD that came with the printer. I've heard about using older drivers, does this mean to download older OS drivers (I tried 10.5 and my Mac said it was not possible to install) or older drivers from Canon?
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    I fixed the problem, however I've seen a lot of questions about the Canon duplex printing issues with some Mac users so I thought I'd put my solution up to help anyone else.
    Going through the On-Screen Manual that comes with the CD I found out that:
    When a media type other than Plain Paper, Hagaki A or Hagaki is selected from Media Type menu of Quality & Media, Automatic Duplex Printing appears grayed out and is unavailable.
    When Borderless Printing is set, Automatic Duplex Printing appears grayed out and is unavailable.
    Automatic Duplex Printing can be performed only when one of the following paper sizes is selected from Paper Size.US Letter, A5, A4, B5 JIS (JB5), Hagaki
    After printing the front page, there is an ink drying wait time before starting to print the back page (Operation stops temporarily). Do not touch the paper during the time. You can change the ink drying wait time from Custom Settings in the Canon IJ Printer Utility.
    After going through the printing settings and following these regulations, Duplex Printing was no longer grey!

  • HP Pro 200 M276nw Color Printer Duplex printing with Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10

    So, I have been trying to use the duplex printing feature with my Mac. However, I havne't been able to figure it out. I see the option for manual duplex printing, but the actual duplex printing feature is not working. 
    Any advice? 

    Hi @joshcooley09 ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues duplexing from Yosemite. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Did you download and install the latest software for Yosemite for the printer?
    HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color M276 Full Feature Software and Drivers.
    Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. Make sure it shows just the printer's name.
    Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen it should show the printer's name. (Laserjet M276)
    If the full printer name isn't listed correctly, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
    Now try and print two sided.
    On the File menu, click the Print option.
    Open the Finishing menu, and click the Manual Duplex tab or open the Manual Duplex menu.
    Click the Manual Duplex box and select a binding option.
    Click the Print button. Follow the instructions in the pop-up window that appears on the computer screen before replacing the output stack in Tray 1 for printing the second half.
    If the issue persists, connect the printer to the Mac by a USB cable and test the printer. Just to rule out a network issue, if the printer is networked.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf MFP Printer Duplex Printing Driver

    Hello,
    I'm consdering about buying HP Laser Jet Pro M1212nf MFP Printer.
    I feel like it's the printer that has all the specs that I need.... Except for automatic duplex printing.
    Automatic duplex printing is super important to me and I'm sad that the M1212nf does not provide it.
    However, I did see that it has duplex printing driver support.
    I was wondering what this driver support is (I've been spending hours on the web trying to get a definition but nothing!)
    and if it will work on a Mac, I saw couple threads that said that some HP printers don't offer duplex printing driver support for mac computers.
    So basilally, I'm wondering how the duplex printing will work if I install the driver support.
    Thanks.

    Good health! I wanted to download drivers for hp laserjet m1212nf mfp. Does not work, can you help me where to download or buy the drivers, I have lost the native disk driver, now cannot install the printer! thank you! if the error my message I will forgive apologize in advance

  • Duplex Printing on Canon MP830 possible?

    Does anyone have a Canon MP830 connected to their MacBook running OS10.4.6? I am able to print, but not able to duplex print. The Layout section of the Print dialog box does not allow me to click on the double-sided printing option.
    In Pages 2, there are a few other sections in the drop-down whose labels are struckthrough, one of which is named Duplexprint430, which I think belongs to the MP830, but again, I am not able to select it.

    Well I don't have a MacBook (yet), but on my PowerBook with 10.4.6 I see a pull down category called Duplex Printing & Margin. What yours shows sounds suspicous. Canon indicates you should be using driver 4.80. See this link:

  • Connected wirelessly to Canon printer MX340. Duplex printing option is grayed out for me but not on my daughter's non-Mac laptop or husband's PC which is connected to the printer. Mine has two-sided option available at the Apple store. Any ideas?

    We use a Canon MX340 series printer/fax/scanner. My husband has his PC hooked to it and my daughter prints wirelessly from it with no problem with her non-Mac laptop. I have trouble printing. Often it does not print and I have to delete the job from the queue. Other times it will print OK but two-sided printing is always grayed out in my printing options. When I took it to the Apple store and printed on their network (selecting their printer) the two-sided option was available. Makes me think the printer is set up wrong, but I am not certain. A fw times at home when trying to print I got an error message about incompatible fonts, but it printed anyway after deleting the job and starting over. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks

    OK, just an update.
    Two years into this, I still find I can only do full duplex printing by using Windows XP running inside of VMWare. I've had occasional, ephemeral luck with duplex printing, but nothing long lasting.
    I've tried this in Tiger and Leopard (now at 10.5.6), and I've had this issue with Canon printers MP780 iP4300 and MP610, direct connected to my Core2Duo 17" MBP. I also have this issue when printing over a network, but that's a much harder problem to solve.
    Currently, this is my #1 most pressing issue for my Mac, because not being able to print from a computer when you print a lot is a really big drag, and using VMWare all the time is also a really big drag. Other people posting seem to be able to print in Duplex using the very same printers. What could be wrong with my MBP? I see the duplex box option, but most of the time it's grayed out as if my printer doesn't support duplex.
    I've tried direct selecting printer drivers from the system preferences, but nothing seems to have an effect. And this is off of a clean Leopard install.
    My wife now has similar problems with her new MBP - the Canon print drivers (CUSP & non CUSP) aren't allowing the Duplex box to be checked.
    I am willing to pay good money to anyone who thinks they can fix this problem.
    Thank you,
    - Jeff

  • I just hooked up my Canon MP830 printer/scanner/fax to my MAC and can print but can't scan.  Anyone out there know what to do with this?

    I just hooked up my Canon MP830 printer/scanner/fax to my MAC and can print but can't scan.  Anyone out there know what to do with this?

    Have you downloaded the approriate Snow Leopard drivers for that printer? Make sure you get the appropriate and latest MP Navigator, as you start scans from the computer, not the all-in-one.  Get them from http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer/printers_multifunction/pixma_mp_s eries/pixma_mp830#DriversAndSoftware

  • Duplex Printing Problem in Adobe Reader X (Mac)

    My normal printer setting is for duplex printing. However, Adobe Reader X will only print on one side of the paper.. This is on a MacPro under Mac OSX 10.6.6 and Adobe Reader X Version 10.0.1 printing to a Canon IP4500 inkjet printer. Other applications duplex fine.
    Any one else with this problem? Fixes or workarounds?

    After having the problem / aggravation, I went through each area trying to
    learn how to get past it.  Finally, I checkmarked 3x "Don't Show Me This Again" 
    Then I established a default printer thereby forcing Adobe to retain print preferences
    instead of  defaulting to "Any Printer" and losing custom settings
    STEPS I TOOK (you may know of something faster, easier?)
    CTRL P  or  File, Print to receive standard print dialogue
    Within "Printer:"  use drop down to select  "PRINT & FAX Preferences...."
    Note: You can set print & fax preferences thru System Preferences, but for
    now we're here
    Select the printer you will normally use and set up a default printer (for Adobe)
    If the Lock at bottom left is closed it will require the system admin ID and PWD
    to unlock/lock in order to make changes :-)
    Once finished close this (top left)
    You will be returned to this panel
    To the right of the "Printer:" drop down is the arrow that expands your options,
    make sure it is aiming UP
    Middle of screen is "Layout"  Select the drop down and select "Two-Sided Printing"
    Look at the next screen image posted below and you will see there's more steps to
    follow for two sided printing
    Check mark "Print Both Sides"
    By Re-Opening the Drop down now showing "Two-Side Printing", you can of
    course adjust other items while here
    Paper Type/Quality allows you to select items such as print quality, color settings
    Select "Print" (bottom right of screen) to return to Adobe Reader Print Page
    Save time by opening the "Presets:" dropdown and save this as a custom print setup name
       i.e.  grayscale_DblSided, Color_DblSided...
    Finally, Check Mark  "Reverse Pages" to print Back to Front and help Adobe
    not to print a single sided first page and double sided pages for the others... Nice!
    It's time to press "OK" and hover over the printer to ensure Adobe didn't send
    instructions to print your 100 single side pages despite all best efforts
    Since going through this rigamarole I have not had to reset it every time

  • Canon MF4150 duplex printing

    Hi All,
    Has anyone gotten duplex printing to work on OS X (10.4.9) with the Canon MF4150? They just released a new driver version (1.5):
    link: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=DownloadDetailAct&fcategoryid=3 35&modelid=14444
    I installed this over the 1.4 version. The two-sided option (on the finishing tab of the print dialog) is still greyed out.
    Canon tech support says that two-sided printing is unavailable on this printer.
    However, someone over at macintouch says that they have gotten two sided printing to work on the MF4150:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/printing/topic4318.html#apr13
    So, what is the answer. Is two sided printing possible from OS X on the Canon MF4150?
    MacBook Pro 2.0GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9)

    The MF4150 uses the UFR2 driver that is also used on the imageRUNNER copiers, which I already have installed on my 10.4.9 MBP. I added the printer driver and can see that the machine definitely supports duplex printing. As you have found it is located under Finishing > Print Style > '2-sided Printing'.
    Since your option to select this is not available, I'm wondering if it is a detection issue? The UFR2 driver, like the PS driver, cannot be configured via Printer Info > Installable Options. For the iR's, the driver polls the copier to determine what accessories are installed. This is usually done on installation but I have also seen this 'get device info' window appear the first time you try to print. I would try selecting the printer in the printer list and clicking Utility. This will open the UFR2 Print Monitor which will give you info about the printer setup. This may 'update' the driver so that 2 sided becomes available?
    Also, I've had issues with the Canon drivers/ppds where one option is greyed-out due to a constraint. For example, to staple a print job the collate needs to selected. But after selecting this, the staple option is still not available. You have to select another menu item, such as ColorSync, then go back to Finishing to select Stapling.
    A last suggestion would be to delete the driver, reset the printing system and delete the UFR2 folder in Library/Printers/Canon. Then reinstall the new v1.50 driver (which is a Universal version) and add that again to see if it resolves your problem.

  • Duplex printing challenges - Canon Imagerunner C2550

    I'm trying to perform some duplex printing with a Canon C2550. The printer is capable of duplex printing however the option to enable duplex printing in the printer settings on the Mac is greyed out. Trying to use the Canon iR C2380/2550 UFR II (US) driver. I can't find any deplex driver settings in the properties of the driver either. If I switch to the Generic PCL Printer driver installed the Duplexer check box shows up in the driver properties however the printer sees the print request as an invalid formatted job. 
    Any suggestions as how to correct this issue?
    Thank you!
    Greg

    One more important point to include: This is a networked printer, not a local printer. Thanks!
