How do I stop duplex printing on laserjet 1536MFP Mac?

[pgershon]

My printer recently started printing all pages two-sided (duplex mode).  I have no idea why and I cannot find a setting to change to get it to go back to one sided.  When i go to the configuration (webpage) it says duplex is off.

Hi,
Follow these steps to disable two sided printing:

Open the file you would like to print. From the File menu select Print. The Print window appears.

NOTE: The Print window might be minimized. Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.

Click the settings drop down, it will usually appear as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.

Select Layout from the drop-down menu.

Set the Two-Sided option as Off.

You may save the settings as a preset by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset...

By doing so and completing the print job these settings will remain default till another preset will be used in the future.

Regards,
Shlomi

Thanks - I now see how to change the setting.  But the default setting remains "long edge binding".  Is there a way to change the default setting of layout/two sided (as opposed to creating a new setting called "default-1")?  I thought about creating a new setting called "default", but that failed.  And I am unable to delete the setting "default".
