I hope someone out there can help because this is driving me mad! I'm new to mac so maybe I'm being stupid, but I can't seem to make this work.

I have an HP 5150 which is fairly old, but on my windows-PC it had a built in manual two-sided printer facility which I used all the time. This doesn't seem to be possible on the mac as the option is greyed out in the layout option of printing. I figured I could live without this and just print the odd pages followed by the even pages - but the printer rotates every other page by 180 degrees so this isn't possible. I can't seem to find how to turn this off and just print all the pages one way or the other.

The other thing I don't seem to be able to control is the amount of ink I use or the drying time.

Can anyone help?
