  • Print double-sided for Deskjet F4280

    I m not able to print double-sided for my Deskjet F4280 printer on my mac only. I can do it on PC, but not Mac because it is disabled. I need help because I use my Mac laptop daily, and it of a complete waste of paper and money and is too heavy to carry paper that is printed single-sided.

    Hello

    Manual duplex printing from a Mac running is different from how it works on Windows PC.

    Please follow the steps below to perform the required task.

    An option to perform manual duplex printing is to use the Pages to the printer setting, you can find below:
    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01663233

    Thus, another alternative is to use the HP two-sided printing software:
    http://FTP.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL35975/MP-88750-2/HP_Two-sided_Printing.dmg
    You can access this tool by clicking the PDF button at the bottom of the print dialog box, and then select double-sided printing and follow the on-screen instructions.

  • HP Deskjet 6988: The problem is how to get to 'double-sided automatically' with 10 WIN my HP Deskjet 6988 printer

    My Deskjet 6988 has been printing double-sided automatically (I have the setting of appropriate material) for the last 3 years. However, when I upgraded to Windows 10, who have enough work. No pilot is available online (HP site) and the disc that came with my printer does not work with Windows 10. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? Really, I love my printer and do not think I should buy a new printer for automatic two-sided printing.

    On Windows systems, the function "automatic detection" used by some drivers on the install (or update) does not always; make sure the driver knows that a duplex unit is present on the printer (assuming that a single is present):

    • For the instance of the printer in question, bring up the printer properties dialogue.
    • Select the device settings tab.
    • Make sure the duplex unit is set to installed and not installed.

    You will probably need to be logged in with administrator credentials in order to change the settings of the device.

    If your model does not have a duplex unit equipped (i.e. not one of the models with a suffix "d"), then you can't do automatic duplexing. You can do manual duplex printing (assuming that the printer driver supports this).

  • Print double-sided on DeskJet 935c w / Snow Leopard

    I've recently updated to OS X 10.4 to 10.6.8.  Now, my HP DeskJet 935c printer will print on one side.

    At first, I could not print at all. I deleted and reinstalled the driver (the last seems to be under 10.5), how I was able to print, but the double-sided printing check box does not appear.  Under available (from 3rd drop on the print window), I can see a 'Double' option, but the selection is grayed out.  I have the duplex unit and have been printing on both sides for years, is not material.  I also tried to change the driver through Print & Fax (System Preferences).  The printer is HP DESKJET 930C; I don't remember if it was the case before.  I tried both the drivers HP DeskJet 930C and 935c Gutenprint v5.2.3 (and another at the outset, I believe).  ...  I don't have the print quality of the selection (draft mode, standard, best) options, I had before.  I don't remember the other options I had, but I have eight (of which some are not really options) and I think I used to have about twelve years.

    My printer does not appear in the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP.

    Does anyone know if there is a solution to this problem?  A new driver under development?

    Hello

    Unfortunately, a new driver will become unavailable because the product is not supported with any Mac SO X higher then v10.5.

    The same information listed for the Deskjet 930c apply for the 935C as part of the same series:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01856359

    According to the analysis that follows, there is a known issue with duplexing for some old deskjet models:

    http://sourceforge.NET/projects/Gimp-Print/Forums/Forum/4358/topic/3563875

    First of all, make sure that the accessory of the duplexer is enabled

    Enter System preferences Print Fax Double click the printer, and then click Printer Setup

    Make sure the duplex accessory is checked in the driver tab

    What Application are you printing from, it is any Application MS Office by a chance

    If so, the print dialog box is slightly different - click Copies of Pages at the top of the print dialog box, and then click page layout

    You should see the duplex option and can save your settings as a preset for future use

    If you use another Application, please specify which one is it

  • HP 2549: HP 2549 and Mac OS x: double-sided printing does not work

    Hello!

    I just installed this printer on my Macbook Air and I cannot print double-sided. I tried by USB / wireless (in the case where there is a difference between the two) but no luck.

    I followed the advice in this post: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/two-sided-printing-no-longer-availble-...

    but I did not tab "driver". I only have "Général", "Levels of power" and "utility." I tried to delete the printer and then add it with HP 2359 and AirPrint not but that does not change.

    When I print a pdf document, double-sided printed is greyed out and I cannot change.

    What should I do? I already reinstalled the drivers on the HP Web site, I selected all the things that I can install it, but that has not changed anything.

    Thank you.

    Hi @blablaalf,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that two-sided printing does not work with your printer HP 2549 on Mac OS X 10.10. I'm happy to help with this problem!

    I assume that your printer is a HP Deskjet 2549, otherwise please reply with the exact type of printer you have. To find product/model number of your printer follow the instructions in this link. Find your model number of the HP product.

    Otherwise, if the type of printer you have. According to this guide, print on both sides of the paper (duplex printing). He said: this printer is not an automatic duplex unit integrated, you can always print on both sides of the page to manually reload paper in the paper after printing tray first to print on both sides of the paper.

    This is the reason why this option is grayed out.

    If you print on letterhead, pre-printed paper or paper with watermarks and pre-drilled holes, the printer prints first the front of the document. Load the paper with the top edge first and the side to be printed facing downwards.

  • Ghosts on pages double-sided printing second on Officejet 6700 Premium e-all-in-one

    Please can someone help?

    Printer name model e-all-in-one Officejet 6700 Premium

    Firmware MPM3CN1232AR

    Software 028.000.1315.000

    Driver 09.84.00.1173

    Win 7 SP1 64 bit

    Wired ethernet connection

    Problem

    On two-sided printing, the second side of printing on all pages is ghost. This is in particular the noticebale on verticals.

    This is true for all the qualities of printing on any documents .pdf or. doc.

    I use all the HP printing paper and original cartridges.

    I aligned the print head and checks suggested on the help pages.

    I contacted HP support, which were brilliant and replaced the printer and the duplex unit.

    They suggested that it was because I was using Office 2003 SP3 and Windows 7 but I find this problem on too but not in Wordpad v6.1 .pdf files

    The problem does not occur when scanned or copied documents are printed

    Is there a solution out there on this new printer please?

    Hi 007OHMSS,

    I carefully read through a VionAiry pointer to the post of ItalSanif with links to more articles.

    There were two main suggestions as to how to proceed. I didn't uninstall the "bloatware" and back to base for the HP Officejet 6700 Premium drivers, but I installed the drivers from the series HP Deskjet 6980 in accordance with the procedure at this link http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Issues-Troubleshooting/HP-7510-Duplex-Problem-y-axis-scaling/td-p/1754773 and listed below, with a few mods to include activation of unit duplex in one set of instructions.

    And you know what? This MARKET! Ghosting on the second side of all pages printed double-sided disappears to be replaced with a nice crisp clear impression. At present, all the other functions, including scanning seem not affected and function as usual, although of course the new driver (HP Deskjet 6980 series) makes the leaves of different properties.

    In my environment, I have also 3 XP machines in network connected wireless to the printer via the router and the PC Win7x64 connected by ethernet to the same router. Meant this download and the installation of the driver HP driver the HP Deskjet 6980 series for the XP PC Web page not the Win 7 x 64 because they were not present.

    I modified a bit routine and reproduce it below to help others. A/c for the original post, that was provided by the HP Technical Support. Why nobody's support services seems to know about or drivers have not been fixed I would never know.

    First turn off you will want the printer already available on the computer before you continue.

    For Win7 PC (XP is similar but not identical)

    1. Go to Start -online device and printers => then click on the "Add a printer" button in the upper left corner of the device window.
    2. Click on the button "Add a local printer" (choose this option if you do not your configuration)
    3. Check the box "use an existing port.
    4. On the drop-down list, select the option for example CN115130TP05JW , but use the correct name for the PRINTER port which is the serial number of your printer (do not use the fax entry)
    5. Now in manufacture of list on the left, select "HP".
    6. On the list of Printers to the right, select "HP Deskjet 6980 series (HP)" "
    7. "Once the pilot moved to enter in the" 'devices and printers ' window and right-click the newly added "HP Deskjet 6980 series" and select ""printer properties ' on the drop-down list. "
    8. Go to the "Advanced" tab, and then in the drop-down list next to the label of "Driver" select "HP Deskjet 6980 series.
    9. Click on the button 'Apply' - the configuration window should change it's shapea bit.

      10. in the HP Deskjet 6980 window properties, click on the tab "device settings" on the top of the window.

      11. in the list of parameters, search for "Unit duplex (for printing on 2 sides) ' and select it.

      12. once highlighted, select in the drop-down list ""Installed "; "

      13. When finished press apply

      14 now, go to what you use to print documents and select "HP Deskjet 6980" as your printer. Activate duplex printing and you should see the pages to print correctly.

    15. you can also change the name of the printer in the "Général" tab I changed it in mine to "HP Officejet 6700 with HP Deskjet 6980 pilot set shadowd duplex printing".

    I had a little problem in that, for some reason any in the document (e.g. Word / etc\ .pdf) box under the effects tab my radio button has mysteriously been on 20% until I changed it it was hard to see that there was no ghosting dialogue printer properties.

    So after complete 1 reconstruction of the printer of the original with the parts sent to HP services support for November 2012, an escalation at magnifications greater within HP (no answer) and a new printer of A...n, VisionAiry has pointed me to a solution that I had tried with DJ 450 drivers, nothing works, after a Shane_R post dated last year.

    So thanks to you and also to 007OHMSS who worked on this problem and original posters

    All I can say is that it worked for me and I am so grateful to everyone on this forum to ensure that I am sure of my eyes and mental health, looking more printed duplex printed with a shadow/ghosts and to be what they were not prepared.

    Congratulations so all round and thanks again

  • How can I print front and back (double-sided)?

    I hope someone can help me... it's a very simple procedure that I do not know how to do it on the new vista software! Help! Everything I need to know how to do is printed on the front AND back. In my office, no one can understand it... Help, please!

    This is a question for the manufacturer of the printer - printing on two sides of a sheet of paper is usually controlled by the printing software and drivers.  As you don't know the brand, model and version number of your printer, I can't provide you with a link to their support site (but it should be pretty easy to find).

    Here is a generic article on printing double-sided in Windows: http://www.ehow.com/how_2253127_print-double-sided.html.

    Here is another article on printing double-sided in general (the configuration of the laptop) and in Word and WordPerfect: http://www.law.duke.edu/computing/printing/doublesided.
