Though my Laserjet 5M comes with a duplexer, I am been unable to print
anything double-sided from Mac OS 10.3.7. I made sure that my duplexer
worked, because when I issue the self test on the Laserjet 5M, the test
result is printed on both sides of the paper.

On the other hand, no matter what setting I chose under OS 10.3.7, I
can never get any document to print double-sided. I have:

1) Gone into printer set-up utility to configure the laserjet 5m
printer. Selecting 'Show Info', I select Installable Options on the
dropdown, and check Duplex Unit on the resulting dialog.

2) When I print a docuemnt, I select File -> Print, then the Layout
dropdown box and choose Long-edge Binding on the dialog box.

After hitting Print, though, the result always comes out single-sided.
Why does OS 10.3.7 not seem to support 2-sided printing, or is
someting wrong on my installation?

TIA

Jerry

Hello,

Have you downloaded the latest drivers for OSX.

The page is:

<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?loca" target="_blank">http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?loca</a>
le=en_US&pnameOID=14999&taskId=135&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=25479&l
ang=en&cc=us&swEnvOID=219

Maybe this will fix it. MAybe HP does not yet have a fully comaptible
driver for OSX. HP should also be able to help you with this issue.

I do not think Apple is going to support an issue with an HP printer.
