About this tag
Duplex printing, also known as double-sided printing, is a feature that allows printers to automatically print on both sides of a page, saving paper and improving workflow. On Windows 10 and 11, users may encounter issues where duplex printing stops working or produces unexpected results, such as colored dots appearing in grayscale mode when the duplex option is enabled. Troubleshooting steps include checking printer settings, updating drivers, and adjusting print preferences. For Canon printers on Windows 7, a similar problem has been reported where selecting duplex printing causes colored dots in grayscale output, suggesting a driver or print wizard conflict. This tag covers common duplex printing problems and solutions for Windows users.
