13.42. How to print 2-sided by default

The Dashboard shows the percentage of pages Printed 2-sided for the selected period. 2-sided printing is also known as: Duplex, Double-sided, and Front-and-back. The numbers are based on meter readings Printix Client collects from the printers registered in Printix.

You can Improve cost savings by making the print driver print 2-sided by default. Has effect only if the printer supports automatic printing on both sides. Users can still print on one side only, but will have to ask for this at each print.

1. Open the Print queue properties page.
2. Select Print 2-sided by default.
3. Select Save.

*Print 2-sided by default does NOT have effect on Printix Anywhere, as the document is in PDF.

*If a print anywhere document is released to a print queue that has Process PDF/XPS and Print 2-sided by default checked, then the driver will be asked to print on both sides.

DISCLAIMER

• We cannot guarantee Print 2-sided by default will work, as it depends in part on the used print driver. Therefore, we cannot be held responsible if it does not work as expected.
• If it does not work, you can try to achieve this with print driver configuration.
