Have a Duplex Printer and we recycle paper that already has one sided printed (wife's a teacher - lots of paper). Our MacBook Air defaults to two sided printing and I can not change this. I understand that if you remove the printer and reestablish it, the "two sided printing" option will once again show up. For other document printing it does not.

OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
I just bought a HP OfficeJet 7500a (which does support duplex printing) and I am unable to do two-sided printing as the dropdown menu (located in layout in the print screen) is greyed-out. Do I require a driver or anything like that?
By the way I am running Mountain Lion Developer Preview if that matters.

I'm currently running OSX 10.9.5 on a mid-2013 MacBook Air and have hooked it up to a Canon Pixma MP230 3-in-1 printer. This printer has a built-in manual two-sided printing function, where the user flips the pages for the printer to print on both sides. This feature was working great right about until a few months ago, and suddenly the option is no longer showing up when I attempt to print out of Google Chrome, nor is it available when I try to print using the personalised printer dialog.
My current printer driver is 11.7.1.0, which came out in Sept 2014. I don't know how to downgrade to an older driver (I have tried several times!).
The option for two-sided printing is simply greyed out on the printer dialog, and there is no option to turn it on in the printer setting (no driver tab).
See what I mean with the images below:
I've searched far and wide on the internet on how to remedy this, but as I stated above, I don't have a driver tab on my printer setting, so this cannot be simply "turned on" somewhere in the settings, because I did nothing to "turn it off" in the first place. Note: other printers display a two-sided printing option on my laptop, so it's this particular printer and driver that are the issue.

I recently got the HP C4780 printer free with the rebate deal. It says that it can two-sided print, but the option is grayed out. Any ideas? Everything else seems to work. Anyone else having this issue or have any ideas? My next move is to download drivers from site, but I hope I don't have to reconfigure the printer, so I am holding out for a few.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've converted from Vista to the new Macbook and have run in to a problem with my printer (Canon MP610). One of the functions I used often in Vista was the double sided printing function. After installing the latest Mac drivers from Canon's American homepage I get a lot of printing options on my mac, but under layout the double sided printing option is marked grey and I'm unable choose this option.
Have anybody noticed something similar using a canon printer? Any ideas concerning how to fix this?
I'm looking for a printer with the following:
- Color
- Has automatic two-sided printing
- Works well with OSX
- Small footprint is a plus, but not a dealbreaker
- If it has a scanner that would be nice, but not required
- I don't really care about WiFi printing
I'm going to use the printer mostly to print out reports and long pdf documents. I don't really care for photo printing.
I'm currently running 10.6.1 and trying to double print using my Canon ip3000 printer, but that option is greyed out.
I've never used this function before and really would like to use it.
I recently purchased an Epson WF 3520 printer that prints 2 sided. My Mac Maverick with all updates shows that 2 sided is turned off but I have not found how to turn it on.

Printing from any program, Two-Sided Printing on the print prompt screen is grayed out. There's no reason for this, as my desktop Windows does double-sided all the time. I've found a lot of discussions in the Leopard forum about this problem, but none of them used my system or my printer and I couldn't find similar solutions. I'm running 10.6.8., trying to print from Chrome specifically, wirelessly connected to my printer.

After upgrading to Yosemite and then updating the Brother printer drivers for a MFC-7840W that pervasively worked perfectly it no longer send faxes.
Previously after selecting Print you would select SEND FAX then FACSIMILE and at this point you had the option to add from the OS X contacts list, this no longer happens. I've deleted and reinstalled from scratch the printer drivers with no change. This is the same regardless of application you are trying to it from, including Contacts itself. How was it resolved as entering a fax number manually appears to work.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to remove malware from my MacBook Air running Yosemite? I tried searching the forums but most of the answers I found said OS X is immune from them or did not apply at all. I was having problems with copy/paste not working correctly and other weird issues so I restarted my MacBook Air. Now when the computer starts, this ZipCloud window pops up. The last thing I installed was Dragon Dictation. Could that be the problem? Anyway, I just want to know how to get rid of this ZipCloud popup and anything else that got installed that I don't know about and don't want.

Once upon a time, I hit "reply all" to an email sent by a friend. This email had 97 addressees, and now they're in my Mail program. Only about eight of them are people I know. When I sent individual emails to crowdfund recently, I accidentally sent to some of these people, and my friend thought I'd hacked his account. I'd like to see them gone.
In older versions of the OS, I was able to remove email addresses I no longer wanted; now, if I can, I don't know how. There are other addresses I'd like to remove, too.

how does one remove an added "application" directory? Not just delete it, but prevent the OS from always looking there, even when it's gone ? On Yosemite, I tried to be "clever" (hint: I wasn't and move a few silly apps to a big external USB disk. The idea was I have 1TB internal, 3TB external, and I thought to separate out some apps onto an remote disk so I can disconnect that (thus the hammer version of "now others can't run this app"). And just copying these files to /Volume/Data (the external USB3 drive) functions fine.
Mechanically, this disk shuts itself off, and it takes a good 10 seconds to wind up. So whenever I search for an app or start an app *on the main disk*, it seems one ends up searching all "app directories" anyway (I put that in quotes because I presume that's why the disk is spinning up when I run an app that has nothing to do with my external disk).
So I decided it was silly to have those apps on the external disk because of the spinup time, experiment failed, I uninstalled the apps. BUT the disk still seems to need to spin up before starting a new app up even though the app directory on the external disk is gone. Being primarily a linux hacker before I bought this Mac , I would say "you have /Volume/Data in your PATH". Which is probably the case at some level. But I'm not finding anything to this effect in the system preferences..

I have a rather large print job to do, with several hundred word documents that open using word. I dont want to have to open them all and click print, I'd just like to right click and hit print. However, when I do this even if the last document was sent to print double sided, my mac prints them all single sided.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI added a network printer (HP Laserjet 2300) to my MB (OS 10.5.8) printer list and I can print single sided just fine. BUT there is no option anywhere in my print menu to print double sided. My two labmates can print double sided on this printer (one using MBP with OS 10.6, one a Windows PC). The menu on the MBP looks different and where I have the "reverse pages" option, they have a "double-sided" check box.
I have already:
-Checked the Duplex Unit box on the printer info menu in System preferences
-Looked at ALL the sub menus in the printer menu
-tried to reinstall the drivers (current driver v. 4.3.5.153 - I suspect this may be the issue because the MBP that can print double sided has driver v. 16.something). Actually the HP site was extraordinarily unhelpful in telling me even what version of drivers I should have or getting me to a place where i could download.
-Restarted my computer with various iterations of the above.
This printer can and does print double sided -just not from my computer because I don't have the check box.
I can't figure out how to print double sided using my MB. It works fine in windows, but I can't even find the option to do so in OS X. I'm using various different HP printers and can't do it with any.)
