How do I turn off duplexing (double sided) printing on the HP Envy 4525 on my Mac

[Panozfan]

I've just installed my new HP ENVY 4525 printer. However, it's printing duplex (double sided) and I can't figure out how to disable the duplex feature.

Any help is much appreciated.

Kind regards,

Peter

Hi Peter,
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,

Many thanks for your help ShlomiL . Somehow, this solution wasn't very clear when printing from within Adobe Reader but in MS Word it worked. I just wonder why it isn't mentioned as one of the first things in the manual.

Have a nice weekend.

You’re welcome @Panozfan 

If you’re not able to find the setting from Adobe Reader, click the Printer... button at the bottom of the print dialog and the you should be able to locate these options.

Thanks for letting me know @ShlomiL . After replying, I noticed that it's the same diaglog box as within Word.... and as with my old Canon MP610 printer. Embarrassing  

Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.
