Xerox N2125 - cannot select duplex under XP

[Paul Ferguson]

I have a Xerox N2125 printer with the duplex option installed. I have
been using it under Windows 98 for a few years. I have a new Windows
XP computer. I attached the N2125 printer and downloaded the latest
Windows 2000/XP PostScript driver for the Xerox DocuPrint N2125
monochrome printer (2125enw2kps.exe).from the Xerox support site.

The printer does print, but I cannot find how to select duplex
printing.

Under W98 I could go to printer options in a window the driver would
present. It included a duplex option and you specify lomg edge or
short edge binding.

Under XP, the format has changed. I can still get into options to
select many items, but I cannot find an option to select duplex for my
print jobs.

Does anyone else use the N2125 under XP? Any ideas on how to select
duplex printing for a print job?

Make sure that you have "Told" the printer that it has the duplex option
installed.
Go to printer proberties, choose Configuration, mark off Duplex Module.
Now you the duplex option is available when printing

I found the problem. I needed to specify to the software that I had
the duplex hardware installed. In Control Panel > Printers and Faxes,
I right clicked on the printer. clicked on Properties, and then the
Device tab. In here is an option to say that duplex is installed.
