I have a HP Laserjet 1536 and I'm up to Lion 10.7.3. Recently I can no longer duplex print automatically. My guess is this started after I upgraded to .3.

My lab just got a new HP Color LaserJet CP3525 and while everyone else can print double sided (both Linux and OS X), I am utterly unable to. I don't even have the option. This is weird, because I have the correct drivers installed and in the system preferences panel, I have the option for duplex printer checked.

The problem is, the name isn't selected. Normally, when you create a new folder, you can just type the name immediately. For me, I have to create the new folder, then click on the name to select the text and then type it. Also, when I do go to type in the new name, the text "untitled folder" doesn't disappear. I just type over it.Â

As with most companies, ours is on a push to go greener. The IP department has decided that one thing that can be done is to encourage the use of duplex printers. We have one, but from the Mac you must go in and specifically select printing on both sides somewhere in the print screen for each app. Is there a way in the setup of the printer to make duplex printing the default?

Working on an iMac 24in Intel that was working fine until my upgrade to Leopard. I originally had issues printing to my Phaser 7700 with the initial upgrade from Tiger to Leopard - but I was able to find an suitable workaround.
Now with the 10.5.7 update I cannot print AT ALL and tried everything from resetting the print queue to reinstalling the drivers. I have tried to print to some of the other printers in the office and I keep coming up with the same error: GenericClass: waiting for device Connecting.
A couple of days ago I had no trouble printing a PDF which was open in a Safari window. Now when I have a PDF open in Safari and I try to print a page of it, the print window that appears shows a blank page, and if I click Print, the paper comes out blank. I tried opening the same PDF in Firefox and the window itself is blank. It works in Chrome.

Here is what I've got�two MacBooks at the office running wirelessly via Time Capsule/Airport. One of the MacBooks has been plugged in via USB to an HP printer (my manager uses that one).
I've been printing wirelessly to an Epson printer. I told my manager that she could also use the Epson and she gave it a try�it worked fine. However, ever since then I have not been able to print to the Epson!?
I tried deleting the driver from the print utility and adding it back on to no avail. Any ideas as to what happened or what I can do to solve the problem?

I have just installed Snow Leopard and I am now unable to print to my HP Office JetPro 8500. It worked just before this and now I get an error every time. I have shut it down, shut down and restarted everything and it s not working. I have been on hold with Apple for about 10 minutes now...

I am new to Automator, and even though I have been tinkering around with it for about an hour, I can't seem to create an action.
What I want to do is have Automator automatically take the contents of a specific folder on my hard drive, print the contents of the folder (usually PDFs), then delete the files. I use dropbox, so when I place a pdf into this folder from my laptop on the go, it would be nice to come home to it printed, and no longer in the folder taking up space.
However, one issue annoys me to no end: In Tiger, if I wanted to go to a web address that ends in ".com" all I had to do was type the domain name. No typing "www" at the beginning or ".com" at the end. This was enabled by default. After performing a clean (erase and install) install of Leopard, it appears that feature is gone. I cannot find it in Preferences.
View 39 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mavericks and am now having problem with my hp 4500 office jet printer. The print icon tends to stay on the dock after the print job is done and then mess up the print queue. Even worse if I forget to cancel it manually then when I put the computer on 'sleep' the printer starts up again and the whole job is rerun unless I get to cancel it quickly on the printer! Â
It does not always do this (the print icon disappearing as it should do), but for 90% of the time it does.Â
I have a Brother 5280DW printer which is supposed to offer duplex printing. I have an IMAC running the latest Leopard, but there seems to be no option anywhere I can find to choose duplex (double sided) printing...
anyone have any ideas or guidance?
I would like to print a copy of my Nikon D90 instruction manual which is saved as a PDF.
I'm trying to figure out how I can print a booklet using the least amount of paper. My logic was to have two pages to one piece of paper. My printer cannot do automatic duplex so I would have to print using odds and then evens.
Therein lies my problem � if I am printing odds it'll turn out that Page 1 & 3 are printed onto one page together.
So how would I go about printing Pages 1&2 and then 5&6 etc and then when I do the manual duplex it would Pages 3&4 and 7&8 etc
I'm not sure if I'm making sense but hope someone can help � it's 300 pages which I could then print on 75 pages.
I have a Brother HL-2170W which allows for manual feed duplex (that's too hard with 300 pages) or using the odds and evens method.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a printer that works well with a mac that can print color and duplex?
View 6 Replies View Relatedhave a new macbook 13" with intel processor running OSX and use HP deskjet 970CSE that allows for automatic duplex printing on multi-page documents. The duplex printing option is unavailable and is greyed out. I have tried to access the function with the standard OSX drivers and after downloading the HP drivers to no avail. I am looking at upgrading my printer to a EPSON WORKFORCE 600 to allow wireless printing throughout the house and wanted to see if you know if the duplex printing will work with that printer also? That printer also allows auto-duplex.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI think it's time for me to go to wireless printing, and I'm tired of printing only single-sided (or trying to manually feed printed paper back in to try to get it two-sided.
Are there affordable laser printers out there that print duplex, have wireless, and are Mac-compatible?
Today, I purchased a Canon Pixma MX350 printer, which is capable of automatic duplex printing. However, when I go to Print in Word, the 'Two-Sided Option' in the 'Layout' menu is greyed-out. Having spent a lot of time Googling and found several similar posts (but not for this exact printer), I understand that this is normal for a Canon printer, but that I should instead have a menu that says 'Duplex Printing & Margin', under which I can select duplex printing. However, I can't find any such menu and can't think of any other way to get duplex printing. The Canon driver I originally had (which comes from the CD provided) was 10.29.0.0. I found a newer one, 10.30.3.0, on the Canon website and installed it, but it didn't fix the problem. I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8.
Since my main reason for buying this printer was because I need auto duplex printing.
II think it's a Snow Leopard issue, meaning that I don't think there's anything wrong with my printer or its connection. Laserjet p2015dn. Always printed duplex when requested, although I can't say for certain that 10.5.8 worked, since I don't print duplex regularly. After SL, I had only the "Manual Duplex" option, and nothing I could do would return my standard Duplex option. I reinstalled, reset the printer firmware, etc. etc. Every place that there's a duplex option, it's checked. Everything else about the printer is fine -- it sits out on the network and prints happily. I have not made a USB connection to see if that makes a difference.

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 6 Replies View RelatedAfter installing snow leopard on my 2.8 GHz 8-core Mac Pro, I cannot do duplex printing. I have also installed the 10.6.1 update. I presume snow leopard thinks my printer driver is up to date, since I have not received the HP printer driver update to install. I have even downloaded the HP Printer Drivers for Mac OS X v10.6 update from the Apple Support downloads site, but I get the following "error message" prior to the installation completion:
System extension cannot be used
The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/hpPlugInInit.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact the product's vendor for an update.
There was a mention elsewhere of a check box in "print & fax" in system preferences to enable duplex printing. Unfortunately, I cannot find this check box.
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.
upgraded to snow leopard-now it gives message the "Auto Duplexer" is not installed on my epson Sprx680 combo printer. Got it working fine in "Leopard".
Driver version on printer is V. 8.02. reinstalled combo update for 10.6.1 and still doesn't work. Any ideas out there?
On my mac mini I get a printer window which allows me to select duplex printing. On my powerbook G4 I get a menu with far fewer options. THis has not always been so, I used to get the same window and options with both computers. If upgrades to OSX have caused this how can I get round the problem
