duplex printing does not work in ubuntu 21.10 within applications like LibreOffice, Firefox or PDF-document viewer. I can select options like double side long edge/short edge, but it always prints single side. It just works with the HPLIP-Toolbox. Obviously the HP Toolbox is using different printer drivers. Somebody an idea how to solve this problem?

  • Probably worth editing your question to include details of your printer. Thanks.

  • Unable to duplicate with the given information. I just printed a 10-page double-sided PDF from Evince (PDF Viewer) on 21.10 as usual. I suggest noting the time, running a test print, then checking your logs (/var/log/syslog and journalctl) for messages around the noted time.

During upgrade from ubuntu 21.04 to 21.10 the HPLIP was not upgraded to hplip-3.21.10. After upgrading HPLIP to 3.21.10 everything works fine!
