Try to print Que on Netflix and it will not print duplex on My Brother HL2270DW whereas it works just fine with internet explorer. Is there a setting I can make to correct this? Thank You Curt

You might need to do this using the Properties button in the Print dialog to set duplex at the driver level. Does that work?

Where does that option appear? I have IE8 on this particular system and I don't see it. In both browsers, I need to change the setting using the Preferences/Properties button.

Yes I know but the option for duplex printing when using Firefox is ghosted out using print preferences for Brother HL2270DW

In another thread involving this same printer (on Windows 8, in that case), it turned out to be helpful to update drivers. Not sure whether that would work for you on Windows XP, but you could take a look at Brother's site and see whether an update is available: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/midlink3.aspx?prod=hl2270dw_all&lang=all&src=DOWNLOAD
