Duplex print issue

Last year at some point QuickBooks would not let me print double-sided reports.  The printer will do it for any other software but not QB.  I recently upgraded to QB Pro 2021 and the problem continued.  Can't find anything in Preferences settings that help either.  I'm using Windows 10 on a PC.

Duplex print issue

Let's perform some troubleshooting steps to print double-sided reports in QuickBooks, Randlyman.

 

The double-sided printing option is on the printer setup settings. You may need to get in touch with an IT professional to configure your printer settings. If the same thing happens, download the Tool Hub and Troubleshoot PDF and Print problems with QuickBooks Desktop. Then, reset the default printer in Windows by following the steps below: 

  1. From the Start button, click Settings (or Control Panel).
  2. Choose Printers and Faxes. Then, right-click on a working printer.
  3. Tap Set as Default Printer. Close the Windows Printer and Faxes window.
  4. Open QuickBooks and open the Printer Setup window to verify changes.

You can check out the Resolve printing issues article for more details about troubleshooting printing problems. Then try printing the report in QuickBooks again.

It turned out that somehow the printer setting in QuickBooks reverted to Factory Default. I changed it to Everyday Printing and the problem was solved.  Sheesh...
