Laser jet 1200
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I upgraded to windows 10 and now my printer only prints one copy regardless of what it is requested. It is a hp laserjet 1200.

I had this problem when I went to windows 7 and I had to disable the mopier mode.

I cannot seem to find the setting to disable it.

 

I request advice on disabling the mopier mode... and or any other solutions to this problem anyone else may have.

Same problem here. I found the setting just as described in the windows 7 thread, but it is greyed out and unable to be changed from enabled to disabled.

Ok... I finally found it.   

you right click on the printer icon then under the general tab... you click on change settings in the lower left corner of the window. 

 

Then you can shut off the mopier mode. 

Be well.

I have LaserJet 2300 and the same problem. Windows 10 hides mopier mode.

I can not change this and my printer only prints one copy . Please help!

I am still struggling with how to turn off "mopier" mode in Windows 10...  a comment in the fall of 2015 gave an instruction but I could not find the tab called "general" after clicking on the printer icon, was that person referring to W7 or 8?...   I have an HP 1200 series Laserjet, just a black printer no colour, it is a sturdy and perfectly acceptable printer and I am not ready to replace it, and I was able to adjust the mopier and some other setting for Windows 7 but can't find the mopier and "job storage" settings after upgrading to Windows 10.  My laptop will now only print one copy of anything, not a huge problem for home but I still would like it to work properly.  Can someone let me know either how to download and "run" or use a newer driver than the PCL5 mine apparently has, or where these settings are [if they exist in W10].  I am not completely literate in computer use so please describe pages and tabs specifically.

Just to add to my above posting --  I have recently upgraded to W10 from W7, used Express mode, have since done some retooling to the setups, etc...

I have solved this thanks to the person posting as dansdaduk in the HP Series 1200 specific forum, so if anyone is wondering about the solution, switch over to that forum here.  I can't seem to get the link to the URL for this forum to paste here, sorry about that, I am not filling out the box for entering the link properly, I guess...

I have an HP LaserJet 3015 and had the same problem with only printing a single page.  To fix this I Right Clicked on the Printer Icon in "Devices & Printers, then clicked on "Device Settings", scrolled down to "Installable Options" and then disabled "Mopier Mode".  My printer now prints multiple pages.  Now if I could only figure out why half of the page comes out black with copying and scanning.

I tried your way and it worked. only thing to suggest is that bottom left command under general tab is CHANGE PRPERTIES. It is in Win 10.

Thank you!

MS Upgraded windows 10 v 1607 and now moper mode is turned on and I can no longer turn it off.  I can see it but its greyed out.  Of course HP has abandoned the printer so its running a M$ supplied driver.
