Printing on both sides

Post by Peter »

I have HP Laserjet 3015 printer. I can set it up to be able to print on both sides. When I set it up with the (free) Atlantis Nova 1.0.0.70, it ignores the setup and just print on one side.

What can I do to print on both sides?

Thank you.

This normally happens when you print multiple copies of a document, and the "Collate" setting of your printer driver is on.

When I open the Print Preference Tab in the printer (Laserjet 3015) under the Heading Paper/Output:

Running FireFox I have 2 sub-lines a./ paper size: letter, b./ copy count: 1 copy

Running Atlantis i have only one subline paper size: letter. The second sub-line doesn't show at all.

Please help. Thanks

Firefox has its proprietary Print dialog. Atlantis Nova just asks Windows to display the default Print dialog of Windows. So comparing the Print dialogs in Atlantis Nova and Firefox does not make sense.

If you are familiar with the Windows Regedit utility, please click the "Start" button of the Windows Taskbar, then click the "Run..." command. Type "regedit" (without quotes), and press Enter. This will launch the Regedit utility. Please check the "Collate" and "Copies" keys under the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Rising Sun Solutions, Inc.\Atlantis.1_x\Print" branch. The default value for "Collate" is "0". "1" is the default value for "Copies".

My registry values are the correct default values ( 0 and 1).

If resetting "Copies" to "1" did not help, I have no further ideas at the moment. I am sorry, Peter.
