How do I stop double sided or 2-sided printing on my Canon MF8300C

[frose530]

I saw some replies for another MF series printer, but the instructions did not make sense to me.  I have gone through EVERY possible option in the print dialog boxes.  I think this is something set on the printer itself somehow.  

  THe weird thing is that on my old computer with the same printer, I had an option in the Print dialog box for "Finishing."  That allowed me to specify (and obviously I could save that setting in a preset).  But, with my new computer and new download of the drivers, etc., "Finishing" is not on the drop down menu.  I do see Basic (which someone mentioned in a post), but that doesn't deal with 2 sided printing.

Please help!!

Thanks,

Cameron

I know this is an old forum. But I came across this problem after purchasing new printers for our office. My problem is in windows 7. To make the print driver always print one side, search for "Print Managment" , open it. Go to the folder "All Printers". Right click the printer you want to change, go to "Set Printing Defaults", choose one sided. Hit apply, okay

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! You just made my life a lot easier. My new imageclass printer insisted on printing double-sided from one of my tax software programs. Had tried everything.........this worked!

I have a Mac Desktop, and Canon Image Class MFb44Cdw printer

I can't stop it from printing double sided. 

I finally found the box to unclick "two sided" but it is not letting me unclick the box

I found this folder when I go into print - print using system dialog but now it won't let me change the system preferences

HELP!

I too am having the same problem. I have downloaded the latest drivers and they don't show up when I re-install the printer. my only driver options are Canon MF642C/MF643C/MF644C - There are no printer drivers in the driver library with MF642CDW where I assume the D is duplex and the W is wireless. In fact, after installing the driver package, I don't see anything that was added today. The drivers for the printer are old.

I may have found a solution for Windows 10.  Don't open Printers and Scanners in Cortana.  Instead open Control panel and find the Canon fax driver or printer listed (and should be set to default printer).  Then right click and choose Printer preferences, Once it opens the preferences, change from 2-1 printing to 1-1 printing and hit Apply.  Then hit ok and exit.  To check on it, open a new word or office document and hit print, open printer properties and make sure the setting is still 1-1.  This seemed to solve the issue for me.
