turning off duplex function

[Patrick0313]

I'm not a techie.  I want to single-side print some documents, but I don't see how to turn off the two-sided printing function. Help please, I'm frustrated and desperate!  Thanks.

Hi Patrick0313,

Thank you for purchasing HP products.

You can follow the steps below to disable Duplex or Two-Sided printing.

(Note: The option on your Mac will vary depending on your operating system version)

Step 1: Check Duplex Driver Setting

1. Click on Apple

2. Select System Preferences

3. Select Print & Scan

4. Click on your printer on the left, on the right select Options and Supplies

5. Under the General or Driver tab look for a Duplex Printing check box, please uncheck Duplex Unit

6. Select OK

Once the setting has been adjusted, please test printing again. Should the print job still print two-sided, please proceed to next step.

Step 2: Check Duplex Print Dialogue Setting

1. Open the document you want to print single-sided

2. Click on File and Print

3. In the Print dialogue box look for Two-Sided, please uncheck it

4. Click Print

Hope this helps to resolve your issue.
