Word 2013 can no longer print double-sided on print screen option. Must click on printer properties

Word 2013 can no longer print double-sided on print screen option. Must click on printer properties. This change in lunch took place last week. Anyone know why?

Hiya @LindaL1and welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

Your description, it looks like there may be an update that changed the behavior of Word. I understand the duplex option is no longer available in the print dialog box and you should now go to the properties of the printer to select two faces. Is it a problem when printing only from Word or any other program? If you find it very tedious, so you can try a restore system at a later date, but from the sounds of it, you still have the duplex option I would recommend probably leave as is and just get used to the change.

I would like to know if there is anything else with that I can help, and if it meets your needs, please click on the I accept button Solution below.

Thank you.

  • I can not long print documents from my iMac/Snow Leopard / HP Laserjet 2300dtn combo. because everytime I try, a message pops up: ERROR: A Fax number is not provided. There is no mention of "fax" in the "print and fax ' file in Prefs system.»

    I use an iMac 2011 under Snow Leopard, but it can no longer print documents via my hp laserjet 2300dtn printer.

    Should Microsoft Vista drivers operate printer Brother HL-1240? I recently downloaded updates for Vista, and now I can no longer print on my printer Brother HL-1240. Updates are perhaps the cause of this problem? If this isn't the case, please let me know if I get the problem somewhere else.

    Hello

    Your question is could a Windows Update may be charged a wrong Brother Printer Driver? Yes.

    One way to know is to look in the history of updates to see what has been installed and uninstall then one that seems incorrect.

    If you are an update of the Microsoft printer driver note that Microsoft updates pilot equipment for other manufacturers are not normally updated.

    Here's how to uninstall specific updates;

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

    If an update is the problem and stop it reinstall > list of updates to install > right click on the incorrect update > UAC prompt > and then click Hide.

    See you soon.

    p.s. Always get the latest updates of the driver from the hardware manufacturer.

    Also would it be a good idea if above does not work to download the last direct Brother printer driver; If necessary reinstall your printer...

    Hi lisap1110,

    It is recommended that you uninstall the printer from your computer and then download and install the latest driver from the Canon Website:

    https://www.USA.Canon.com/Internet/portal/us/home/support/details/printers/inkjet-multifunction/MX-s...

    This should give you the option to print double-sided again.

    It has a network HP Photosmart Premium Fax all-in-one Series - C309.

  • I can no longer print Windows Photo Viewer printer works very well with all the other prog

    My Epson printer has always worked well with the Windows Photo Viewer that I prefer to use.
    A few weeks ago, I ran a computer cleaning prog that I didn't like, and so removed, now I can print from any program except Windows Photo Viewer
    I use Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.

    Method 1.

    Check that you are doing the default Windows Photo Viewer.

    Try the steps below; It could help us solve the problem.

    1. open default programs by clicking the Start button.

    2. click on Control Panel, and then click default programs.

    3. set your default programs. This option allows to choose the programs that Windows uses by default.

    4. Select Windows Photo Viewer in the list and click Set this program as default.

    5. try to access photo and check if it opens with the Windows Photo Viewer.

    Also access the link to know how to set and change your default programs: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-which-programs-Windows-uses-by-default

    Method 2.

    I suggest that you can exercise SFC scan and check if that helps. The SFC/SCANNOW command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    For more information how to make SFC / scan, please follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - Can no longer print with my Mac

    I have been using a printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus via my MacBook Pro (OS X Yosemite version 10.10.4) for about two years with no problems until recently.  Since a few days ago, I'm more able to print wireless, despite the fact that the printer is connected to the network.  Interestingly, the print queue reflects the print job completed, but pages do not print.  In my attempts to solve the problem, I have (i) restore factory settings and re-written information of network required on the printer; (ii) disconnected the printer and waited five minutes;  (iii) unplugged and reset the router. (iv) deleted and reinstalled the software and drivers printer on my laptop.  My laptop is in communication with the printer as evidenced by my ability to scan using HP Scan wireless, but I'm unable to print the document once it is scanned.  Finally, I am able to print the network settings Page in the menu of the printer, but not the printer web page... I get an error message saying 'the printer is busy. Try again later.  Any ideas to fix this frustrating problem would be greatly appreciated.  I apologize if my descriptions are not technically accurate because I am a novice when it comes to computers and networks.  Thanks a lot for your help.

    Thank you for your response and suggestions. I really appreciate it.  You beat me to the punch... only a few hours ago, I was able to get the printer working again... but I forgot to update my post.  As you recommended, I have reset the printing system, downloaded a new driver... hpprinterdriver3.1.dmg... added a new printer... restart the printer, my router and my laptop... and the printer from work once again from my Mac.  Yet once again, I appreciate your efforts... Bravo.

  • Double-sided printing. The different margins top, front and back

    I'm tying to print the aWord 2013 document on A4 sheet, double-sided, on my envy of 7640, now my Windows 10 pc.

    I played with different sizes of margin and sometimes the text at the top of the page is missing or text starts at least 30 mm from the top of the cover page. Still back starts about 7-8mm from the top of the printed page.

    I can't say with certainty that it is since the free update of Windows 10, but he printed double-sided OK in the past.

    I have not modified parameters, only diversity of margin sizes when creating documents.

    Hi @crag67,

    I understand that when you print from 2013 of Word by using the duplex function, the margins on the front of the page and the back of the page are different. This happens when you print from other programs or just the word? If it occurs with other programs, it could be the driver, but if it occurs only when you print from Word, Word or a framework within the program, in which case I suggest reaching out to Microsoft or the Microsoft community.

    If this problem occurs when you print from several programs, we will remove the driver and re - add new.

    I suggest to use the following steps to remove the printer from the device and printers and the driver from the properties of the server.

  • MacBook Pro: set double-sided printing by default for printing HP 8600 over Word

    Can I set duplex printing default for Word on my MacBook Pro documents. ? I undertand how to set type for a docukment of words individual, but want to set as the default value for all the word - and all the documents. I can do this on my PC.

    Hello

    You can set as default on Mac as well, however that works very different from Windows.

    First define the printing parameters for printing Double sided, then click the Presets menu and select 'Save the current settings as a preset' advance, completing the print job.

    By default, a used preset will remain until another preset will be used.
