How to print both sides on hp office jet 2540

Hi, I have a Mac and it is updated to the latest version, and I have the hp deskjet 2540. I wonder how to change print settings to double-sided. I have looked everwhere and tried everything. Help, please.

Amberana, welcome to the forum.

According to the information I found on the printer it does not print double-sided or front / back as it is called.

  • Office Jet 6000: cannot find how to print the test page with Office jet 6000

    I can't find in the properties of this printer HOW to print a test page. I was running out of ink black, and all color cartridges are rather recent and not on show at low levels. But, after replacing the black cartridge the first doc to test printed came out very uneven and unreadable.  There is no error message.  How in diagnostics on this printer to test the printing?  I tried not to print a doc of color (as photo) yet.

    Can I update the driver?  Help, please.

    Hello

    Test print page options under properties of the print driver for your device.

    But I don't think that solv your problem.

    You must print alignment and another test for correct print quality problems.

    Here is the HP site, gives detailed instructions form document.

  • 2610 print both sides with Vista

    I've recently upgraded to Vista Home 32 bit top, and have the latest version of the software/driver installed. I noticed that I no longer get the "print both sides" option in the Properties window. Is this a Vista problem?

    BTW, I say I have the current driver, download it tags like 080.001.237.000, but the solution ID Center told 082.000.242.000 that must be more recent. The update check says: I'm updating.

    Thank you

  • two face automatic printing both sides of the page, does not work. Why?

    I have a printer with auto print both sides of the page. It does not work. Why?

    Some printers require a separate duplex adapter must be installed in the printer. He might be able, but the part is missing. Additionally, make sure that you use the printer drivers printer manufacturers, not those provided with Windows.

  • HP 4630. impossible to automatically print both sides

    Hello

    My HP Officejet 4630 print automatically on both sides very well. However, after I've deleted and reinstalled the device, I can't print both sides automatically. the printer give me only two options to print. I know if only print one or two faces manually which take longer and more complex.

    Hello Annie,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you have lost the ability to automatically duplex printing with the Officejet 4630. Can you go to control panel > printers and devices and right click on the printer. Click Printing Preferences, and see if you can set the duplex option from there.

    Definition of duplex here will be a default for all programs. Let me know if you have that option here.

    See you soon,.

  • HP LaserJet P1102 cannot print both sides of the paper

    I updated my Windows 8 Windows 8.1 and now I can't print both sides of the paper.

    In my old Windows 8 my printer HP LaserJet P1102 printed the odd sides of the document, then a pop-up window appears and when I click on the 'next' botton and submit the documents to the printer printed the sides of the document. After that the Windows update in the context menu does not appear, so the printer simply prints the odd sides and then nothing happens (just the red flashing on the printer).

    I tried to update the driver (downloaded from your site), but nothing has changed.

    I hope that you can add some useful tips and I can solve this huge problem.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I understand that you can print is more on both sides.

    When the light flashes try and open and close the lid to see if continues to print.

    (there is no button for the printer but which will resume print jobs)

    I would do a complete uninstall and reinstall the printer software to see if that makes a difference.
    You can download the drivers from this url.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&DLC=en&lang=en&LC=en&product=4110396&

    Win8 and Win8.1 drivers are the same Version9.0.

    If you need more simply make assistance let me know.

    Please let me know if the printer is connected by usb or the installer on a wireless network.

  • My HP Deskjet 3520 changes margins when printing both sides of paper

    When I set the margins and font size and print one page with no impression both set of sides (I use Windows 7), then the page will print as shown. If I use multiplex manual print correctly on both sides of the paper. However if I am printing two pages by clicking on properties and choose print on both sides, flip on the long side, then decreases the font size and increase margins.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    The problem with automatic two-sided printing causing your text to change is due to the printer by increasing its margins for the duplexer inside the printer to retrieve the page and flip it around.  It is a function of the printer and cannot be changed.  The only workaround is to return the page to the hand or adjust the margins on the front to match the rear.

    -Text or Image to be printed is Cut Off on one side- this document is the closest thing I could find that answers your question directly.  Sorry, I couldn't be more helpful, but there is really nothing that can be done.  I would like to know if I can be of any assistance, however, as I am happy to help you.

    Thank you

    Hi dnamkr,

    Have you also tried to scan from your Mac? Similar problems with it?

    I wonder if it could be related to the router, you have the Officejet and Mac connected for not totally supported Hello (mDNS/Multicast).

    What you can try is first to add the printer via IP. Open on your Mac system preferences and then go to print & fax. Click the Plus sign icon to add a new queue of the printer. Then choose IP - protocoll choose HP Jetdirect taken and then insert the IP address of the printer in the address field and add the printer. Now try printing with this new created printer queue.

  • L7680: print both sides of a single sheet

    does not allow me to put 2-sided should be simple

    Make sure the driver knows that a duplex unit is present on the printer (assuming that one is):

    • 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.
