HP 8600: No option to duplex printing

Yesterday or the day before, I installed the latest driver from HP printer on my Mac. Today, when I tried to print double-sided with the double-sided accessory, I couldn't find the option in the print window. Before the update of two-sided printing was an easily selectable option. But now, how to print double-sided copies?

Thank you very much

Hello
Please follow the steps below to automatically print double-sided print jobs:

1. check that duplex printing accessory has been installed correctly. To check this open system preferences and go to the Printers & Scanners. Open the print to your printer queue. Click Printer Setup and in the tab menu choose driver. Make sure that the box next to HP printing accessory (duplexer) sides.

2. in the file being used to print click the file menu and select print.
NOTE: The print window might be minimized. Press show details to show all available print option.

3. in the print window expanded you will find next to Copies the checkbox for duplex. Select the check box.
NOTE: If the check box does not appear in the specific application print dialog box, skip this step.

4. to select the connection type click the selection box below, listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.

5. Select the menu drop down.

6. set the duplex option as the binding edge (Portrait) Long or short edge (landscape) bond.

You can save the settings for later use by clicking preset > save current settings as preset. A used preset will remain the default until another preset is used and can be easily selected in the presets menu in the future.

Kind regards

  • Where is the option for duplex printing to my HP (with duplex unit) Mac OS 10.6.7 2025dn?

    I have a HP 2025dn (the model with the duplex unit installed).  I've updated for Mac OS 10.6.7, but I can't find the option for printing using the double-sided and double-sided printing unit.  In earlier versions of Mac OS X, it's under "Transfer paper" or "Paper source" in the dialog box "print."  Where is he now?

    In Mac OS 10.6.7, recto verso/double-sided printing option is in the following dialog box:

    1. Select file, and then 'Print' (or +)

    )

    2. expand the Menu print (when the "Print" dialog box opens, select the small black arrow next to the drop-down list "Printer")

    3. the drop 4th in the high says "Preview".  In this drop-down menu, select "Layout," the next option down.

    4. we'll find this menu drop down, different options will be displayed.  "Duplex" is the third option.

    5. in the 'Two-sided' drop-down, select one of the two options.  "Long-edged" link will be printed as a book, which means that the front and back will have their vertices on the same side of the page.

    When you're ready to print, select "Print", and your job will be printed on both sides.

  • Vista / Win 7 Troubleshooting Guide duplex printing

    Some users have problems using the automatic duplex unit in Vista or Windows 7.  This guide addresses some of the common questions and provides solutions.

    No option to duplex print. The selection for automatic duplexing two may be grayed out, or only manual duplex is available.  This happens usually because the duplexer is not recognized as installed, or the driver can default to not installed.   To fix this in Vista do the following: click Start, Control Panel, printers, right click on the printer, run as administrator, properties, (continue), parameters of the device, Installation Options, switch to "both sides Duplex" installed, OK.  For Windows 7, the method is similar: go to start devices and printers, right-click on the printer, printer properties, together of settings, Installation Options, device the "two sided faces" to installed, OK.

    Back side Prints Upside Down. There are several possible problems that can cause the back side print backwards.  The first thing to check is the settings.  Generally, there is a checkbox in the 'Finish' tab or 'Features' to select 'Pages Flip Up' or maybe 'bind on the short edge.  You may find that some programs require this box to be the reverse of what you would expect.  I've heard tell that some Adobe products requiring the creation of reverse.  If changing the setting does not change the direction so you may need an updated driver or a fix.  You can check the website of HP heredriver updates.  Fixes for some ink jet models are available here.  This problem has been corrected in most of the drivers for Windows 7 but can still occur on Windows 7 systems that have been updated to Vista.  The patches for Vista works on Windows 7 as well if necessary. [Updated - HP has now fixed this problem in a lot of pilots.  Check here before I continue with my patches, the HP solution is better automated to install the hotfix].

    "Material duplexer is not installed". Some printers such as the Photosmart C7280 connected networks may incorrectly indicate that the material of the duplexer is not installed when you print two-sided pages.  By clicking on 'OK' will cause the pages to print correctly.  HP has released updates for the drivers to resolve this issue, see the HP driver page to see if updates are available for your model.  If your printer does not have an available update there is a work around which may help: some users have reported that installing the printer as a connected USB device, and then restored in network after the installation will fix the problem temporarily.

    Other questions. If you have other issues to print duplex on Vista or Windows 7 please post the questions as a response in this thread.  Be sure to note what printer model, how the printer is connected, your operating system as well as the details of the issue you are experiencing.

  • Duplex printing HP Officejet Pro 8600 using Mac OSX 10.7.5

    I have OSX 10.7.5 and I recently purchased the Officejet Pro 8600. I noticed that when I choose to print from Firefox browser, I see the duplex printing option. I don't see this option when printing from Word, Excel or Adobe software.

    Is selected in system preferences, then why can't two-sided printing from these applications?

    I wanted to share what I found, in case someone else has the same questions (I got a quick help of Apple Support communities/forums).  I don't know if this applies to versions of Microsoft office, but my key learning is that the checkbox will appear not at all for these programs. You will need to set by other means.

    Microsoft 2008

    Go to the print dialog box

    Choose the submenu "Layout" (I think that this menu by default to "Copies and Pages")

    There is a "double" option, and choose 'off', "mandatory long edge" or "short edge binding.

    Once I did this and the saved settings, he worked also for Excel and Adobe.

    The only problem with Adobe, it's that you must follow these steps whenever you print. If I just hit print without following the steps below, it will not print duplex. The steps are on the following link.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Acrobat/KB/print-double-sided-Acrobat-Reader.html#main_Ma c_OS_print_double_sided

    I was expecting the same dialog box that is displayed on the browser also seems with my other apps, and this is not the case.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus N911G: Cannot use the Scan to PC, option on my printer

    I recently updated from Windows 8.1 for Windows 10 and had to reinstall my printer drivers and software.  Since doing so, the office of my printer scanning function did not work.

    When I use the option on the printer, I get the message that no computer I'm done to open the HP printing software, select the scanner actions and select manage the scan of the computer.  The only thing is that twhen, I go to the HP folder in my Start menu, there is no installed printer HP software.

    I went to the page support and download the complete software solution for my printer and ran the installation, but I still do not have anything that will allow me to select the actions of scanner, and then select manage the scan of the computer.

    I even tried to use HP Print and scan v4.7 doctor.  He said full software solution is not installed on my computer and it gives me a button to click to download the software, and it is said that it downloads all the 123 file meg, then it gives me an error download failed message and offers try again immediately, but it fails every time.

    My printer is connected to my PC via my WIFI router.

    Hey there,
    Try the next step, I believe that this will help you overcome the problem.
    1. remove the printer driver of "devices and printer" which is located in Control Panel.

    3. extract the contents of the file.
    4. open the "Utils" folder and choose the folder 'x 64', inside you should be able to locate a file called "RemovePreInstalledDrivers" > once you open this file black screen opens, wait for it to close, then move to the next step.
    5. go to the main folder where you have already extracted the software and right click on the file x 64.msi (name is most likely your printer model), then choose the Option "repair". > Subsequently, you will be asked of preformed a reboot. (Incase you will get a Messege saying "this action is only valid for products that are currently installed" simply double-click the file instead)
    6. after the restart, the head disk Local C/ProgramFiles/HP/PrinterModelFolder/bin/USBSetupLuncher and double click it.
    7 start the installation, choose the wireless option.

    Who should add the scanner to your imaging devices.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600-duplex printing upside

    It seems that one of the parameters must be changed. Use the following link to adjust settings to print on both sides of the page without side being updated down. > Print on both sides of the paper (duplex printing)

    I suspect that you currently have selected short edge binding, you will need to choose binging long edge.

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    I'm not talking Mac - OSX or Mac nothing else, frankly.  The smile.

    I don't know that the Duplex setting must be defined in the Print Options.

    I found the following - directions probably depends on your version of Mac OS x - it may be enough for you to find the configuration:

    Double-sided printing

    and from HP:

  • Duplex printing on Macx 4240N

    So, we have a printer HP Laserjet 4240n that fails to print duplex. After going to the layout, "Two faces" option is greyed out and unselectable. What can be done to fix this?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Indeed the 4240 is not AirPrint enabled printer.

    The 4240n does not print duplex automatically, only the model "d" support automatic duplex printing and, therefore, the option both sides should be greyed out because he only reffers auto duplex.

    You can find the characteristics listed below:

    To print two-sided manual open the file used to print, and then click file > print.

    Note: You may need to click Show details to spend printing options.

    Click on the drop-down list below, appears under the name of the application on most applications (e.g. Safari, Text Edit, etc)... will appear as Copies of Pages & in MS Office for Mac
