The duplex option works fine on my Mac. How did u add the print driver?

Hey Trippy, First I installed from the included CD, then I installed the latest driver from the Dell website. I think that just involved a drag and drop, but I really don't remember.

What os are you using? I'm on 10.3.9 and I wonder if this got better in 10.4???

Thanks for letting me know that it can work. I've ended up going around this using CUPS, 'common unix printing system' per other advice. I'd love for this to just work through the normal Print dialog.

Hi Jack,

im on os 10.2.4. I would suggest u delete the printer from the Printer Setup Utility. And re-add the printer again using the Printer Setup Utility. Hopefully this works.

I can't get the duplex option to work either, new MacBook Pro. 1815 is connected over network.

I have this working now. The fix involved deleting some preference files. I'm sorry, I'm traveling and don't have the notes about exactly which ones. If you call Dell support and get queued to talk to the one guy with Mac experience he can let you know. Prepare to be told that they don't support Macs/don't know how to do this/blah blah blah. Eventually I got to a very knowledgable guy who got it working for me.

I got it working! I'm not entirely sure how, but now the duplex option isn't greyed out.
