Hi @DavidM1963,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

To set your HP Envy 6132 printer to default to one-sided printing, you will need to adjust the printer settings on your computer. Here’s how you can do this:

 


On Windows:


Open Control Panel:
 

  • Press Windows key + S to open the search bar.
  • Type Control Panel and press Enter.


Go to Devices and Printers:
 

  • Click on Devices and Printers within the Control Panel.


Access Printer Properties:
 

  • Right-click on your HP Envy 6132 printer icon.
  • Select Printer properties from the drop-down menu.


Adjust Printing Preferences:
 

  • In the Printer Properties dialog, click on the Preferences button.
  • Navigate to the Finishing or General tab, depending on your printer model.


Set to One-Sided Printing:
 

  • Look for an option like Two-sided (Duplex) Printing and set it to Off or select One-Sided Printing.
  • Click Apply or OK to confirm the changes.


On macOS:


Open System Preferences:

  • Click on the Apple logo at the top left of your screen.
  • Select System Preferences.


Access Printers & Scanners:

  • Click on Printers & Scanners.


Select Your Printer:

  • Select the HP Envy 6132 printer from the list.


Open Options & Supplies:

  • Click on Options & Supplies.


Adjust Default Settings:

  • Navigate to the relevant tab where you can find duplex printing settings.
  • Make sure Two-Sided is unchecked or select One-Sided as the default option.


Save Changes:

  • Save the changes and close the window.

    I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!
