Pages out of order when booklet printing on both sides

When booklet printing on the HP Laserjet Pro 200 color m251nw using manual duplexing the pages come out in the wrong order. If I create a document that has 4 pages only it prints pages 4 and 1 on the first side and 2 and 3 on the second as it is supposed to. If i add four more pages it no longer works properly - in that case it prints pages 8 and 1 on one side then 4 and 5 on the second side of that sheet and then 6 and 3 on the first side of the second sheet and pages 2 and 7 on the second side of the second sheet so when it is folded in half the page sequence becomes 1,4, 3, 2, 7, 6, 5, 8. I routinely do this on another hp printer and a xerox printer with no issue. What settings should i be using on this model?

Hi , I see that you are having issues manually duplexing. I would be happy to help you. Here is the two-sided printing instructions provided from the manual on page 27. LASERJET PRO 200 COLOR.You may have to uninstall and reinstall the printer software, it might have gotten corrupted. I would suggest to download a Universal Print Driver to see if that will help resolve this issue.HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 (32-bit). If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Printing on both side of the form page front and back

Hi experts,
             while developing a purchase order i have come across a requirement to print on both sides of the page on the front side i wont to print the normal calculation and on the back side i have to print the terms and condition of the company what should i do for this please help.i have already created the PO which has to be printed on the front side just i wont how to print even on the back of the PO,Should i create a new window or should i go for a seperate smart form.
Thanks
Sumeet Malhotra

1. Assign next page of first page to terms and condition page. and assign terms and condition page to next Page. Goto terms and condition page attributes and uncheck the counter button.
In Case the printing ends of only in first page then put a command line with condition based on your requirement to trigger the Terms and condition page.
ex: page1 -> first page
      page2 ->second page
     terms-> terms and condition page.
assign Page1->terms
    and terms->page2 (Uncheck the counter)
    and page2->terms

Printing on both sides and in order

I have a 80 page document where I would like to have 4 pages per A4 sheet printed. Then I would also like to print on both sides. My printer doesn't have a duplex unit so I would have to put the paper back in the tray to print on the reverse - that's not the problem.
How can I do it where is prints the following pages first:
1-2 / 5-6 / 9-10 etc (each of these are printed on 1 side of A4) then I would like to put these back in the printer and print the reverse ie:
3-4 / 7-8 / 11-12 so on one sheet I would have 1-2 on one side and 3-4 on the reverse.
Is it possible to do this?
I know I could do it if I were to have 1 page per A4 sheet printed because I would simply select Print even pages only and then for the reverse print only odd pages.
I hope all that makes sense and someone can help.

There is booklet software available that will do what you want. Two that I have tried are 'Create Booklet' and 'ClickBook'.

Unable to enable duplex printing through e-Print (Print on both sides - flip pages on short edges)

I need to print on both sides on the HP Envy 100 - 410a. How do I enable this feature. Everytime I try this on ePrint, I have the email attachment printing out on two separate papers. If I print direct from the document, then this does correctly print on the same paper on both sides, just the way I want it.
I need to get ePrint to work on both sides of the paper (flip pages by short edges) by emailing the attachment.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, Duplex is not supported on ePrint at this moment.

I have a laserjet 2200 dse. How do I get the option to print on both sides of a page?cc=US

I recently had my computers wiped clean. Prior to that, when I attempted to print, and clicked on Properties, I would chose the Finishing tab and be able to print on both sides of the paper. Now, the Finishing tab does not appear when I click on properties. What do I need to do to get those options back?

I hope you are having a great da and sorry to hear that we are having this issue
Bear in mind your HP laserjet 2200dseThis is a commercial product. I suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support for a better chance at finding a prompt solution.

Adobe Reader 11.0.07 defaults to duplex printing. Is there a way to set the default to leave that "print to both sides of the page" box unchecked?

Adobe Reader 11.0.07 defaults to duplex printing. Is there a way to set the default to leave that "print to both sides of the page" box unchecked?
I am working on an end-user's computer, I just updated to the newest Adobe Reader and they don't ever print duplex. I want to be able to have the "print to both sides" box unchecked on the print dialog by default. Is there a way to do this? I have the printer settings all set to 1-sided but it is adobe print dialog settings that keep messing it up.
Thanks!

Hi John,
Have you tried repairing Reader and checked?
Does this issue occur only on this machine or are you facing the issue with other computers as well which have updated to Reader 11.0.10?

Photosmart C6280 not printing color/both sides with Mac

Hello HP Community,
I have a Macbook Pro running iOS X 10.9.2 and a AIO Photosmart C6280. I am have downloaded the printing/scanning software and drivers. Everything installed without problem. I have also scanned with no problem. However, no matter what program I am trying to print from on my Macbook, the printer will not print in color and also will not print on both sides - even when the double sided feature is checked off.
I have been to all the discussion forums of relevance and can't find anyone with my same problem. Those that have similar problems, are running different versions of iOS and the steps suggested they take are not possible with this version. Please Help!

Hello HP_USER,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you're unable to print in color from you Mac 10.9.2. I will try to help you with this.
Have you tried making a color copy from the printer? If not please do so, this is to see if the printer is having the issue stand alone.
I would also recommend looking at these documents:
Missing, Faded, or Dull Colors
Wrong Colors
As for it not duplexing, according to the User's Guide, this printer doesn't duplex as in it doesn't have a duplexer. If you are manual duplexing that would be slightly different, as it requires you to be flipping the page after the first side has come out. This document can assist you with that: Print on Both Sides of the Paper (Manual Duplexing)
I hope this helps you out, thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Print on both sides

Hi, why can't I figure out how to print on both sides, using one document?

Double-sided printing is a function of the printer driver if your printer supports double-sided printing. If your printer, like mine, only prints one side at a time, you can use the Paper Handling in the Print dialog box using Tiger. Click on the drop-down menu that says Copies & Pages & select Paper Handling then Page Order: Reverse & Print: Even numbered pages. For the second side, leave Page Order: Automatic & set Print: Odd numbered pages. If you use a printer that has a separate manual feed tray, you will need to change to that tray by selecting Paper Feed from the Copies & Pages drop-down & select the tray you will use. Whether the pages will need to be face up or face down & which edge should be fed first will vary depending on your printer.

How do I print to both sides of paper for greeting card on Brother Printer

I did not find the answer on the forum. I have iLife 09 and this Brother MFC-790CW printer. I do not see any automatic setting for printing on both sides. I am using a iPhoto greeting card template and it looks OK with a page one for the front and a page two for the back.
Maybe the only way is to print out all the fronts pages (20) and then put the paper back in and print all the pages 2 (the text inside of the card). That seems like it would be faster than other ways, except automatic.
Obviously I should have done this a month ago and sent the project to Apple, but now I have no more time. Ii have the right paper for the one fold cards and plenty of ink

You need to have an image editor that supports layers. If you do follow the directions in these tutorials:
#8 - Printing a iPhoto Greeting Card
#8a - Printing a iPhoto Greeting Card to Standard Stock Sizes
Here are some editors that support layers:
Some Image Editors that support layers:
Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac - $79
GraphicConverter - $45
Rainbow Painter - $30
Acorn - $50
Pixelmator - $60
Seashore - Free
Portraits and Prints - Free
GIMP for Mac - Free
You might be able to use Pages instead of an image editor.

Our HP laserjet , model P2050 , does not print on both sides even though the " auto rotate " box is

checked. Is there someway to cause the printer to print on both sides? ( There is another printer box that comes up in other instances and it has a "Preferance" box which , when clicked on, gives a different way to choose two-sided printing, and that one works to cause the printer to do as wanted.)
The box that shows " auto rotate' doesn't have a print preview.

Printing on both sides

Hi, I have an HP laserjet P2015dn. In the past, to print on both sides all I had to do was check the box in "finishing", and it would print. Now, for the past month or so, when I go to print on both sides, it is telling me it has to be "manually".
I purchased and installed QuickbooksPro 2011. This printer problem occurred after I installed Quickbooks?? Could this be the problem? I had 2008 version of Quckbooks installed prior, nd never had a problem to print on bothsides. I don't think Quickboks is the problem, but if it isn't than how do I correct to "automatically print on both sides???
Thanks for your input.
Bardon

Sorry guys................I answered my own question.
I went into the HP P2015 user guide & found the answer. on page 32.
I went into printer properties, device settings, noticed that duplex unit for printing on both sides was showing as "not installed". I changed this to "installed", and it worked.

HP LaserJet 2300dn Not Printing On Both Sides Anymore?

Hi,After upgrading to Windows 8.1 64Bit my laserjet has lost the abilty to print on both sides of the paper automatically. I assume it's something to do with the driver but am not sure.I have tried downloading different drivers from the support page but I don't know which one I'm suppose to be using and whatever I do doesn't seem to work. Anyone who can suggest a solution, I would be most grateful. Thanks In Advance DiGiTiSeD

Ensure that the driver knows that a duplex unit is present on the printer (assuming that one is): For the printer instance in question, bring up the Printer properties dialogue.Select the Device settings tab.Ensure that the duplex unit is set to Installed rather than Not installed.You'll probably need to be logged in with administrator credentials in order to change the device settings.

HP Color Laserjet 2550n has no more printing on both sides

In 2005, I bought an HP Color Laserjet 2550n to go with my laptop. I had no printer problems. I loved the feature where I could print a document on both sides of the paper. The option would show up on the properties menu on the print document dialog window.
Over the past summer, I lost my laptop to a crash and had to get a new laptop using Windows Vista OS. I hooked up the printer using the USB port and all seemed good until I tried to print on both sides. In the properties menu of the printing dialog box, the option has disappeared completely! I tried updating the drivers - didn't fix it. I tried reinstalling the software that came with the printer, but Windows Vista OS wouldn't accept it. Help! I don't know what else to do. I appreciate any help.
I have also tried Bob_Headrick's advice on Vista Duplex Printing Troubleshooting Guide for "No option for two-sided printing." The option appeared in the properties menu, but the printer still did not print properly.

How to print on both sides of paper

I have HP 3050A wireless printer. How to print on both sides of paper

This printer does not do auto duplexing. The only way to print on both sides of the page is to print one side, put the paper back in manually, and then print the next page. If you have something say 10 pages long, you can also print only odd pages, then only even pages tospeed it up.
