Firstly, I am on Windows 11. Whenever I try to print stuff, there is no option to print double sided. It used to be there, but now its gone for some reason on all my printers. How can I fix this?

Windows 11 newly installed. Kyocera M2640idw printer. I can no longer print double sided. The article mentioned above simply got me to a page with only one Layout option: Portrait or Landscape.
Please inform us how to fix this. It appears to be a common problem.
Thanks

I'm having the same problem with a new computer with Windows 11. Could previously print two-sided on a computer that had Windows 10. I have a Brother printer MFC-J4700W.

Hi
I am still having trouble with this. When I get to the printer preferences this is the only option I have. My printer model is a Canon TS5100. It worked fine before updating to Windows 11.

This happened to me, with my Brother colour laser printer. Essentially prior option for double sided printing vanished. Trying to update the driver showed driver already up to date, and fault finding found nothing wrong.
https://www.howtogeek.com/761173/how-to-print-double-sided-on-windows-11/ is totally useless, because the option no longer exist.
Eventually what fixed it, was I deleted the printer under Devices and Printers in Control Panel, headed to the Brother website and downloaded their Windows 11 software associated with the printer, and used the new downloaded software to "reinstall" the printer as if it was new.
