'Print on both sides of paper' in Adobe Reader 10.1.2 + DFS shares....

Hello
After the latest update a new print dialog is available which includes the option to 'Print on both sides of the paper'. Our printer (available via a print server in a Windows domain environment), is capable of printing duplexed copies of documents but is configured to default to not use duplex. When the option to do this from the Adobe Reader print dialog is selected the printer driver overides it and the document is printed normally (not duplexed).
Is there a way to hide this option? We often need to print duplexed copies of documents but usually set it in the print driver when it is needed. Because the option is being overidden it has the potential to create an enormous amount of wasted paper and toner and will increase our printing costs.
Also, when V10 was released, trying to open pdf's located in DFS share paths caused the program to hang. The solution was to disable protected mode. I tried enabling protected mode after this update (and previous updates), and restarted the application but instead of hanging, Adobe Reader now displays a message box stating:
There was an error opening this document. Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.
If I disable protected mode and restart Adobe Reader the document can be opened.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi, Shatik
Thanks for replying.
The DFS shares are mapped as a network drive. This is done just once using a batch file that uses the persistent switch. No roaming profiles, no username\application data path.
Since posting this I can now access PDF's, but many of our staff are now unable to scroll through an entire pdf without Adobe Reader hanging. Again, removing the checkmark in the protected mode option allows full scrolling of a pdf.
Disabling/enabling antivirus real-time scanning makes no difference.

  • HP officejet 4630 won't print on both sides of paper

    Cannot print on both sides of paper. The backsideprints first, then wait for ink to dry, front side starts to print then stops with a windows error message popping up on screen saying cannot print document.
    I have found that I cannot print multiple pages either. For example, I decided to print the 4 page document as single pages only (since double sided wouldn't work) and the results were first page prints second page prints about a third and then all stop with error message that printer cannot print the pdf document. so I had to select each page seperately to finnally get all four pages printed. HP print and scan diagnostics says theres is no problem. Windows diagnostics says there is no problem.
    Obviously there is a problem can any one offer advice and solution?
    Thanks

  • 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

    You might be able to use Pages instead of an image editor.

  • 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.

  • Printing on 2 sides of paper

    Where in Windows 8 can I tell the printer to print on both sides of paper?

    Hi,
    Well, it depends on your printer. Does your printer support duplex printing automatically ? If yes, you need the right driver. What is it ?

    Hi @Wineroth 
    I can help you disable the duplex printing feature. I suggest resetting the printing system to delete all printer presets. I suspect something was saved at some point that is causing the printer to print 2 sided.

  • Printing scripi on both side  of paper

    Hi All,
    I want to print script on both side of paper.
    my observations.
    the output device they are using it prints report on both side of paper.
    in script , processing mode selected D  and i am printing dunning letters.
    in main program used NEW-PAGE. that should not make any difference.
    let me know from script side what i have to do and also from my device type what else i have to check.
    urgent
    Regards

    hi,
      We can print both sides of the paper
    <b>You switch to duplex or tumble duplex mode with a form page for which one of these modes is specified. To continue printing in the current mode, for follow-on pages you must define another page in which the Print mode field is empty. Otherwise, the following pages after the mode switch will continue to be printed only on the front sides of new sheets of paper.
    The reason: When SAPscript sends a page with Print mode D or T to the printer, it not only sets the print mode accordingly. To ensure that the first page in the new mode is correctly output, SAPscript also instructs the printer to output the page on the front side of a sheet. If SAPscript sends a sequence of D or T pages to the printer, the output is printed only on the front side of each sheet.
    You define a first page named FIRST for a form to be printed in duplex mode. You therefore set the Print mode in FIRST to D.
    To make the duplex printing work correctly, you must define a second page FOLLOWER in which Print mode is left empty. In the form definition, you specify FOLLOWER as the follow-on page for FIRST and for itself as well.
    Your text is then printed in duplex mode. FIRST switches the printer to duplex mode and forces printing of the first page on the front side of a new sheet. FOLLOWER accepts the duplex mode and sends no further mode print controls to the printer. The printer therefore alternately prints FOLLOWER pages on the fronts and backs of sheets.</b>
    The print controls that must be defined for a device type depend upon the SAPscript printer driver that is to be used with the device type.
    set the followint print control.
    <b>SPMDU</b>
    Begin duplex printing (both sides of paper). (Needed only if supported by device.)

  • 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?

  • Print in both side of the paper

    Anyone can tell me how I can print in both side of the paper?
    Thanks

    Does your printer handle this automatically? If so you set that in the printer driver settings. If not, you have to print one side, then turn the sheet and print the other.
    It's very important when you ask a question like this one that you provide a full set of information including your version of InDesign, the operating system, and the printer make and model.

    How do I get my macbook OS X 10.5.8 to print both sides of paper with HP Officejet 6000 wireless?

    If it has that available, when the Print Dialog comes up, click on Copies & Pages, choose Layout, look for 2 sided printing... some Printer Drivers may have it under abother heading.

  • Print issue: "Print on both sides..." checkbox not present in V10.1.2 under Win XP SP3

    Since upgrading to Adobe Reader 10.1.2 (wish I never had), my "Print on both sides" option is evidently ON (by default), but I cannot turn it off because the check box to do so is not present in the Print dialog:
    The checkbox should be underneath the "Choose papre source" box, but it's not. Hence the advice in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/928/cpsid_92870.html is useless. I have done a Control Panel > Programs > Change/repair, still the same problem. Also have tried Adobe Reader > Edit > Preferences > General > uncheck "Enable protected mode at start-up" (suggested in another thread), problem persists. (Re-enabled Protected mode). 
    Using Win XP Pro SP3.
    This is a real pain....every print job brings the dreaded "Print on both sides instructions", with wasted paper, prompting each page to print manually, etc.  I have seen this scenario reported by others...Adobe, please fix this!

    Hi Johann,
    You printer driver doesn's support duplex printing, because of which you are not able to see that checkbox.
    You can try the following to disable duplex printing through registry:
    1. Go to : Start-> Run-> type Regedit-> click OK.
    2. It open registry editior. Locate the registry:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\AVGeneral]
    3. Find the existing DWORD value which is named :
    "iDuplexMode"=dword:00000001".
    Set the value either as:
    1 = no duplex
    0 (or key does not exist) = duplex
