Reader XI wont print duplex

Reader XI ver 11.0.03 appears to NOT support duplex printing as I can find no way to turn it on

You can find any supported Reader version at http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
However, if your printer driver is corrupted, you will have to reinstall it.

Indesign wont print duplex booklet

im having an issue printing duplex booklet straight out of indesign
i have enabled two sided printing on my BROTHER MFC-J6510DW printer dialogue, but when you send it, it doesn't print duplex.
for now i have had to add a PPD patch file so i can print the booklet to PDF (postscript) file, and then from there the printer seems to have no problem printing the document duplex.
any ideas why it doesn't work straight from indesign?

Other programs don't mean a thing to ID and printing. The bad news is I'm a Windows user and the dialogs are a little different and I never can remember which buttons are which on the Mac. You need to get all the way to the printers driver settings dialog -- might be called printing preferences or something similar, and it may be one level deeper than you've gone so far.
Or it could be that ID and that printer just don't get along.

Cannot print duplex with adobe acrobat reader 9.1.3 on centos 5.3

Hi,
I am managing some linux servers for users and I am using Centos 5.3 and acrobat reader 9.1.3 appears not able to print duplex
I tried multiple documents on multiple printers (configured via cups).
Thing is that evince (http://projects.gnome.org/evince/) does print duplex without issue. But some users need the advanced features of Adobe reader.
Document type properties print dialog box default is set to duplex mode "simplex", but they are not changeable, even not when acroread was started as root.
And the individual printer settings are set for duplex.
All that acrobat reader 9.1.3 prints out is simplex (single sided printed).
I looked for config files in /etc, but could not find it, would be nice if this could be set in a conf-file in /etc
Thanks,
Joost

How do I get my new MG5420 to print duplex?

Have new Mac and new MG5420 that is supposed to print duplex but wont.....or cant. The print boxes from the applications do NOT have any place to choose duplex........

I got to this thread because I had the exact same problem. I set up my printer wirelessly to connect with an Imac and a Macbook Air, both with Mac OS Mountain Lion. When I asked it to print, there were only a few options. There was no duplex available, nor were there color options. After trying a number of options like reinstalling printer drivers, I finally hit upon a solution.
I connected my printer to my Imac with a usb cable, and it showed up in my system preferences as "Canon MG5400 series -2" I enabled "share this printer on a network." Immediately on my Imac, when I went to print, all the print options were available including duplex and color options.
I then went back to my laptop, and found the options were still NOT available. However, I clicked on the "Printer" line at the top of the Print dialogue box, and it let me choose "Canon MG5400 series -2." As soon as I did that, all the advanced print options appeared on the Laptop Print dialogue box as well.
I don't know if this is the only way to fix the problem, but it certainly worked for me. I know the option that I have repeatedly seen of "Look for a drop-down menu with the heading of either "Layout," "Copies and Pages," or the name of the application you are printing from. Change this to 'Duplex Printing & Margin'" simply does not work, as the "Duplex Printing & Margin, just did not appear.
I hope this works for you as well.

Black Ink wont print on HP Photosmart Plus B210a Product CN216A

My black ink wont print on the printer stated above. I have changed it twice in the past 3 days, still wont work. I then ran a print quality report, cleaned printheads, aligned cartridges, ran all the tests. Nothing will work. The color ink will print, but nothing black will. On the print quality report, the black ink wont show. The printer displays the black ink, so installation of the cartridge must have been correct. Is the black ink cartridge or slot broken. I'm not a tech savvy person so I dont know the term for that thing. Please help, and let me know if I should just get a new printer. Thanks

Since you have automatically cleaned the printhead, and aligned the cartridges I would try a manual cleaning of the printhead to make sure that ink buildup is not the issue. Solution three on this document shows how to remove and clean the printhead manually. I know that this document is not titled with your ink issue, but it is the best at outlining the steps needed to do that cleaning on the printhead. Open that first drop down menu option titled “0xc1900013 or no code displays with the Ink System Failure error message” and follow those steps listed under solution three. While you have that printhead out and are cleaning the contacts, take note of the warranty ends date listed there. If there is still an issue, write back and let me and provide that date off the printhead too.

How can I save a Adobe document to print duplex for other users.

I want to create a doc using Adobe and be able to set it to print duplex by other users without the user needed to go into printer settings.
All the user has to do is click print on there computer and the doc. will print duplex. The users have Adobe Reader installed.

It is possible to set a default value for the Adobe Reader or Acrobat print dialog on a document basis. After the document is created, go to Document Properties (Ctrl-D), and select the Advanced tab. Go to the DuplexMode setting. Normally, this is set to Simplex, i.e. single sided printing. You can also set it to either Duplex Flip Long Edge or Duplex Flip Short Edge depending upon your needs. Duplex Flip Long Edge is normally used for printing of “portrait” orientation content with Duplex Flip Short Edge typically used for printing of “landscape” orientation content. Then save the PDF file (typically, “save as” should be used).
Important notes: Obviously, this only works if the PDF file is being opened by one of the applications that even bothers to look at these settings. Adobe Reader and Acrobat do. Don't count on MacOS Preview or other applications to do so! Furthermore (and somewhat obviously), this setting is only observed with print devices that directly support duplex printing. And finally, this does not force the user to print duplex. It simply pre-populates the print dialog; the user can change the setting.

Using a mac 10.6.8 to print duplex to HP laserjet P1606dn, order of paper comes out mixed up

using a mac 10.6.8 to print duplex to HP laserjet P1606dn, order of paper comes out mixed up as follows: the first page out is page 2, with 1 on reverse side, next page is page 4, with 3 on reverse side., etc. This requires that I re-collate every paper I print. Have tried a few things in set up and re-installing the printer, but still not fixed.

I am having the same problem. Nice to see that HP has not responded.

HP 1300 wont print from Remote Desktop applications

I have an HP 1300n attached via USB to a windows 7 computer. I log onto a clien'ts windows 2003 server using remote desktop application. I have installed the driver to HP 1300 PCL 5 on the remote server and of course it's installed on the windows 7 machine. I can see the HP via port TSXxx on the remote server but when printing, nothing happens. The document is sent to the "printer" but doesnt print in my office. I've tried many solutions and nothing so far works. I have 3 other windows 7 computers and 3 others HP 1300 and all are experiencing the same thing.

How print duplex on Solaris 10 0508 x86 ?

Hello,
I just installed Solaris 10 0508 x86 on a Ultra 20. We have a networked HP laserjet 8150dn printer. What is the option to print duplex?
Previously on Solaris 10, 1106, I followed the instructions on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/submitted/duplex_printing.html and was able to print double-sided.
However, now on update 0508, the same lp and lpadmin option "-o sides=two-sided-short-edge" doesn't work - still prints single-sided. What gives? Please help me save a tree!
These lp or lpadmin options didn't work either:
"-o duplex"
"-o sides=duplex"
Also looked at HP's SOLe134.PKG, but it's for SPARC, not x86 - couldn't find a download for x86.
Thanks!

I'm not sure if there was some sort of corruption, but I eventually resolved the issue by removing and readding the printing-related packages from the CD:
SUNWpcr
SUNWpcu
SUNWpsr
SUNWpsu
SUNWpsf
SUNWscplp
SUNWspman
SUNWscpu
and then installing a default local virtual printer before the network one:
# lpadmin -p new-printer -v /dev/term/a -T PS -I postscript..
# enable new-printer
# accept new-printer
# lpstat -t

HP Officejet Pro 8000 wireless wont print with iPhone 5s

This printer billed as Wireless that I purchased in 2011 wont print with IPhone or iPad because it is not on list of Air Print devices So I was told by HP to buy a new one and since it wasnt equipped with HP's "eprint" the app thats out there to make up for this will not work. I was speaking to sales person to avoid paying but I cant believe this. There are better printers but that doesnt make this a throw away. and who wants to buy a wireless printer that wont print wirelessly? Help!
This question was solved.

Hi there Hank,
Sorry to hear you're having a rough go with the printer.
As for the 8000 wireless, I would guess that you got a newbie tech rep on the phone. I couldn't figure out why they said there's no workaround, because I had been able to get older printers going with HP troubleshooting documents. So here are a few that might help:
1. Install the printer on your network (if it isn't already) Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection
2. Download the HP E-Print Mobile App for iOS. It should still work with non- eprint printers: https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/hp-eprint/id299531647?mt=8
3. Take a glance at this tutorial video, for some quick tips on getting started: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1z1pSC8WHI
Hope this helps

Prints only a few pages when I print duplex.

I'm on a Apple MacBookPro running Mac OS X 10.7.5 using Adobe Reader 11.0.2, current as of 01-March-2013, and I noticed that I'm having problems printing duplex with an Toshiba eStudio 351c copier. I have a 50 page document that I want to print duplex but I only get three pages before it stops. I print the same document using Apple Preview and I could print all 50 pages duplex no problem. I have tried this with three different systems; Mac Pro ruuning 10.7.5, MacBookPro 10.6.8; all these are Adobe Reader 11.0.2 with different Toshiba print drivers and they both only print three before it stop so my thinking it has to do something with Adobe Reader 11.0.2.
I tested duplex Adobe Reader 10.1.6 and 9.5.4 on Mac OS 10.6.8 and it had no problems with duplex printing.
Does anyone else experience this issue with printing duplex with Adobe Reader 11.0.2 on Apple Mac OS X 10.6/7 and is there way to fix or will Adobe fix this possible issue?
Thank you in advanced.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Anyone have a fix for this?

Printing duplex postcards - URGENT!! pls Help.

I want to print duplex to a 4x6 inch postcard. The printer is set with a duplex queue. No postscript printing only PCL printing. We are on Reports 6i running against the 9i db.
The data will come from one record. Fields 1,2,3 go to front side for the address. Fields 4,5,6 go to back side. There will be boilerplate on both sides. I am using a letter format. Should I use something else?
Is there a "HOWTO" which addresses my request or is there a sample report which i can use as the foundation to start this.
I have tried several different data models and report layouts designs. I do have a printer which accepts the next record on the back side. But I need to split the record to the front and back of a single card.
This is the second post.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

you never initialized the server_output and the server_input vriables...
I see you have the getstreams() function which should initialize them but you never call it...
so untill you will call it those variables will stay null.
I can also see you do not implement constructors, its much easier just to implement these instead of functions initializing variables...
Hope it will help
private void getstreams() throws IOException
server_output = new ObjectOutputStream
(client.getOutputStream());
server_output.flush();
server_input = new
ObjectInputStream(client.getInputStream());
public static void main(String args[]) throws
Exception
TClient client = new TClient();
try{
client.server_connect();
String command=client.get_cmd_frm_usr();
//System.out.println("this is returned from input method n ready to sent to server soon: "+ command);
client.Send_Message(command);
client.recieve_n_disp_mess();
client.close_connection();
} catch(EOFException eofException) {}
catch (IOException ioException) {}

Printing Duplex Pages, Single Page, Hidden Page Question

I have an 8 page form where there are several forms in the following format
Page 1 - Single Sided
Page 2 and 3 - Double Sided
Page 4 - Single Sided
Page 5 and 6 - Souble Sided
Page 7 and 8 - Double Sided
What I would like to do is have those blank pages in the form hidden from the staff but to make them available for printing since we use our copy machines as printers and they print on both sides of the paper.
I'm attaching the form so anyone can see what I'm talking about.
https://acrobat.com/#d=PI8bPrHtrPOXCPq41zlttw
Any help is appreciated

It's probably on their Printer setup. Sometimes if you set print for duplex then another Operator comes in and uses the same printer and assumes it's simplex printing it can print duplex or whatever the previous print setting was used.

InDesign CS5 Won't Print Duplex

Hi,
I have InDesign CS5 and a Laserjet 2605DN printer. I printed duplex pages using InDesign with no problem on my old computer (Windows Vista) but now that I have another computer with Windows 8, I not able to print duplex.
There's no two-sided option available in InDesign's print dialogue. I have to choose "Setup," where a popup states, "If the desired print setting is available in InDesign's print dialogue box, please set it there to avoid printing conflicts."
I can print duplex from Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Word... just not InDesign. I've searched for solutions, but haven't found anything related to InDesign. I'm hoping someone here can offer some help.
I don't understand why InDesign wouldn't have a duplex option available in its print dialogue box like other programs do.
Help, please...
Thank you.

Okay, I read through a couple of "More Like This" posts mentioned on the right-hand side of this forum and one post mentioned setting the paper size as "Defined by Driver." When I checked my setting, I saw it was already showing "Defined by Driver." So, I changed it to "Letter." And that solved the problem; I'm able to print duplex now, thankfully. I hadn't even noticed the paper size wasn't showing letter to begin with.
Hopefully this might be of help to someone else now.
