The "print selection" option is grayed out for me. I know that there is an app that you can download, but it only works on Safari and I prefer to use Firefox.

The other annoying thing is that duplex printing isn't supported by Mac OSX. I emailed Canon about it and this is what they informed me.

Where can I suggest that Macs incorporate these things into their OSX?

I have a Samsung printer that duplexes, and for the longest time, it was either all or nothing - I couldn't switch between the two.

*Finally* Samsung updated their drivers so that I could actually turn duplexing on or off through the print dialog (like you're supposed to be able to.)

Works great now :) If yours doesn't duplex, it's probably Canon's drivers...

Ok cool thank you for the comments. It probably is the Canon drivers... I'll ask my friends if they have the same issue.

I have always been able to do duplex and non-duplex printing flawlessly to the HP LaserJet here at work. It even gives me the binding style options (ie, print the reverse side with the same orientation like a book, or inverted like a flip-pad)

Definitely need to direct your feedback on that point at Canon.
