HP photosmart b109a-m duplexer?

Hi, I have the printer hp photosmart b109a-m and I also use a mac snow leopard

I realized that my "double" option is grayed out and to allow that I should check the box "duplexer" under settings options of the printer driver but for the moment there isn't this option.

I was wondering if this printer supported printing recto verso and what I need to install a new driver additional downloads online to make it able to do this?

I installed everything on the CD it came with only.

Oh, and also, is this the same as b109a b109a-m product?

Thank you very much for your help!

HELO BiancaDT,

B109a-m is the software solution, the name of the real model is B109a.

The specific model device does not support duplex printing automatic that evoke the duplex function.

You can perform duplexing manual as follows:

To perform manual duplexing, Joanie you 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.

Kind regards

  • Photosmart B109a-m: HP Photosmart B analysis problem with new HP computer

    I recently updated my computer to an HP all-in-one running Windows 8.1.

    I used to be able to scan on my HP Photosmart with several options, including "Paper to Searchable PDF File" and "text (OCR) in a RTF file. Unfortunately, these options are not available on my new computer and I can only scan to PDF or TIF format.

    Is there something I need to download to enable me to continue scanning to searchable PDF?

    Hi @kiwiscot8,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I noticed that before you upgrade to WIndows 8.1 you had options for 'Document to Searchable PDF File' and 'Text (OCR) to RTF File' with your HP Photosmart B109a. I'm happy to help you!

    After some research I came across this post, Re: impossible to analyze OCR on a model of all-in-One Photosmart B109n-z, @Timoto, I think will help your situation.

    Hope this solves the problem for you and have a nice day!

  • Photosmart B109a-m printer suddenly will not print.

    My Photosmart B109a-m printer suddenly will not print. It worked last night and no connections or settings have been affected since then.  It will not print the test page and the printer Utulity advises that means a problem with the printer, not the computer.  The computer shows it sends data to the printer and indicates that it is printing but nothing happens with the printer.  Any ideas how can I fix?  I'm on an iMac with Lion.

    How is the printer connected?

    Try to reset the printing system:

    -Go to System Preferences > print & Scan
    -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign more to add a printer. Select the default tab on the top of the window. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

    Hi caterpillarand thanks for getting back to me!

    I appreciate the info!

    I recommend you to perform a power reset the printer.  Unplug the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug back in the printer. Make sure that you connect the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any surge protector or power bar.

    I suggest also download and run the HP print and Scan doctor.

  • No printing of yellow color in Photosmart B109a

    Hello!

    I use the all-in-one Photosmart B109a printer and it was working fine until yesterday. Since yesterday, it prints yellow color. I use the original HP 364 cartridges, the warranty date is OK. Soak the printhead nozzles in the water would help? If he would, how can I do?

    Argyle thanks for your suggestion. This is what I did before posting on the forum, but did not help. So, I wiped the nozzles of the printhead with a soft and rather wet and thus solve the problem.

    Windows 7 driver is not automatic duplex printing. "The options are manual, or a booklet * two or more pages per page. How can you print a page by on the side of double-sided automatically?

    In fact, the driver of Windows 7 made good automatic duplex printing - no patch is required for Windows 7 [edit - this is true for fresh installation.  For the versions of Vista the patch may be used for Windows 7].  The default value for some printers, is that the duplexer is 'not installed', please check the Duplex Printing Troubleshooting Guide for Vista.  In Windows 7, the procedure is slightly different, in the folder printers click twice on the 7410, double-click the icon 'Customize your printer', device settings and under installable options go "Duplex for two back" on installed, OK.

    I have a photosmart printer 7520 with printing. It is installed on a windows 7.

    When I try to print documents using automatic duplex printing, is it a way I can change the course of the back of the page, I try to print folding brochures and the back of my pages are backward.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    You are certainly able to scan an entire document using your Photosmart B109 printer, and also you can scan multiple pages into a single file. To analyze the whole area, you'll need access to Solution Center software on your computer in scanning settings to do. Regarding scanning of multiple pages in a single file, see section of the FAQ in the guide below.

    Here is a link to help out you: Scan the computer with (Windows) HP solutions Center
