A/C blowing out hot air on driver side, not passenger

my 2005 camry is having ac problems. The passener side is putting out cold air, and the drivers side is putting out hot air. I do not have dual climate zones. I wanted to know if anyone may have an idea of what this problem is. Thanks!

the first things i'd check:
1. evaporator of A/C system (the radiator-looking thing under the dash) is clogged with dirt,needs cleaning - i'd access it however i could and blow out the fins and tubes with low pressure (40 psi or so) compressed air and a vacuum (external only of course).
2. ducting on drivers side is broken
3. ducting on drivers side is clogged by dirt, birds and dead bats
4. your climate control fan has broken fins or motor is worn out and too weak
5. Refrigerant level is low, need to add some. Possibility there is a refrigerant leak
6. A/C condenser (the radiator-lookiing thing on front of the real radiator) is clogged with dirt, needs cleaning - soap and (low pressure) water, or compressed air as in #1.

Gbur if any of these things fix it or if something else does, could you please post what the fix was? I for one am curious about this odd problem

I am having the exact same issue on my 2002 Camry. I have noticed that if I close the passenger vent I get cooler air out of the drivers side but not completly cold. Also there is plenty of air coming out of the vents. The coldest vent is the passenger side door then they get warmer with the drivers side door vent being almost no cold air.

I have changed the filter behind the glove box but it didnt make any difference.
