Description:
When printing to a Brother series printer in Foxit PhantomPDF/Foxit Reader,the options "Print on both sides of paper", "Flip on long edge" and "Flip on short edge" are all greyed out,but the printer itself supports the duplex printing. How to make the options to print on both sides to be clickable,so that I could print print two sides to the brother printer in Foxit PhantomPDF/Foxit Reader?
Solution:
