How to fix my printer setting

Asked By cwilson 20 points N/A Posted on - 10/31/2011

Hi All,

I wonder how to fix my printer settings because after I ungraded my Windows XP to Windows 7 and use the same driver for the printer, the option printing into manual duplex is not working properly anymore.  It prints 7,5,3,1 or 8,6,4,2 instead of the other way around.

The other option does perfectly. I even tried to set it on MS Word but still no luck. Help me please!

Thank you !

How to fix my printer setting

Hello there!

You might need to uninstall your printer and reinstall it on your new windows. Also, check if the hardware is set up properly. Then, use a printer troubleshooter to automatically fix the problem. And lastly, update your drivers. It is very possible that the current printer driver that you have is for the previous version of Windows in your computer.

Since you recently upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7, you have to look for a new driver that is compatible with windows 7. Download and install the latest driver by using Windows Update or by installing the software from the disc that came up with your printer.

Hope this helps! Good luck!
