Kyle,
The solution you offerred to turn off the ANNOYING two-sided copying for the HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus does not work for my Mac computer running OS X Version 10.9.4.
Do you have a solution I can try to turn it off? Why does it need to be this difficult?!?

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @4jsmith ,
I'd like to offer my suggestion to you. See this post by @ShlomiL that has resolved this issue before in regards to turning off duplex printing on a Mac.

I'm sorry but this solution does not work. Even if the user attempts to save the current or most resent setting as a present (which you can can only after printing -- otherwise you cancel the new setting) the printer software defaults to the long-edge binding (duplex) printing. This using a macbook pro with OSX 10.9.4; Word for Mac 2011 v.14.4.0; and HP Pro 8600. Really silly .. as other users have suggested, should not be so difficult -- in fact intractable.

Hello,
I have a variation of the problem of duplex printing on the Officejet 8600 Pro N911a printer when using my mac (10.10.2).
When I was on a pc, I was able to scan two-sided documents with this printer. I would put the paper in the auto feeder, let it copy the one side, then turn the pages around (not over) and feed the back side. This worked perfectly. Now I get my new mac (Nov. 2014), and I cannot find any menus that will allow me to scan two-sided paper. Currently, I click scan and the scanning starts immediately--I have no chance to deal with the two-sided feature which was explained earlier for printing. If I could do scan two-sided docs on a pc, shouldn't I be able to scan two-sided paper on my mac?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I'll answer my own question. I finally called HP Support after I had struggled to resolve this issue myself. The technician install the drive for the HP Laserjet 8040 printer, saying this configuration works well for my 8600 printer. He did the installation for me, and now I am one happy camer!

I don't consider loading the driver for some other printer to be a true solution - that software was never specifically tested for your printer so who knows what other gremlins you might be introducing into the mix??? Seriously - don't let HP off the hook with this hack ...
