Image Class D420 always prints 2-sided

ronmerrill — Tue, 10 Mar 2020 05:57:46 GMT

Hello,

With the most recent OS update for Mac (Catalina 10.15.3), my ImageClass D420 is stuck printing double sided. I have installed the latest driver, uninstalled and re-installed the printer from settings, but still no luck. Prior to the latest update, it I could only print single sided. The option to select Two-Sided in the print layout has always been greyed out. Any advice? Thanks.

Greetings,

Are you using Catalina specific drivers for your D420?

Drivers for this OS are avaialble here. I would suggest removing the printer, uninstalling the current software or driver and restarting the system. Then install the drivers for OSX Catalina.

You will need both UFRII / UFRII LT Printer... and the Scanner Driver and Uilities for MAC.

Thanks for the recommendation. I repeated the install, following your direction, but still have the same problem. Everything else seems to work fine, The two-sided option is grayed out (unselectable), but it always prints duplex.

Hi ronmerrill.

When removing and then reinstalling the printer, it's important to ensure you are selecting the Canon-produced drivers in the Use Driver drop-down. If you're only seeing a single-column list of available printers, select Add New Printer or Scanner to open the Add window. In the Use Driver drop-down, select the driver that lists the printer's model or series number.

If the printer is installed using the Canon-produced drivers, and still experiencing this problem, make sure you're using the driver V10.19.2 [Drivers & Downloads page].
