Product: M281cdw
Operating System: macOS 10.15 Catalina

For some reason I am unable to do automatic duplex printing from my Mac to my MFP M281cdw.  i have the HP drivers installed, but the system print dialog only shows "Manual Duplex" as an option.  I know the printer has a duplexer, and I have seen it do two-sided printing in the past.  But since I updated my system and drivers, I am no longer able to do double-sided printing.  Anyone else seen this, and/or have suggestions?

 

Thanks!

I will answer my own question.   The automatic duplex is not part of the paper handling in the bottom part of the print dialog.  Instead, it is enabled, by checking a "Double Sided" check box which is towards the top of the window.
