Force ImageRunner 6255i Single sided

I am running Windows 8.1 and have a Canon Image Runner 62551.

I am using a GENERIC / TEXT ONLY driver. (I cannot change this fact)

When i map to this printer and check the properties it lists the following features:

Color: NO

Double-sided: NO

Staple: NO

Speed: UNKNOWN

Maximum resolution: 600 DPI

Everything works fine, but it always prints double sided. Is there any option in the printer settings itself to force single sided.

I have no option in Windows to select single sided under Printing Preferences or Printer Properties because the driver is so basic. (Again, i cannot change the fact that it is GENERIC / TEXT ONLY)

I tried printing from Word 2013, Notepad, Notepad++ and all give double sided results.

Any help is appreciated.
