Try the following command
margins, dydx(_all) post
this is equivalent to mfx compute, predict(p11) with
(p11)=(depvar1=1, depvar2=1)
however a simple and general way is the following
The marginal effects for, Pr(depvar1=1, depvar2=1), are
mfx compute, predict(p11)
The marginal effects for Pr(depvar1=1, depvar2=0) are
mfx compute, predict(p10)
The marginal effects for Pr(depvar1=0, depvar2=1) are
mfx compute, predict(p01)
The marginal effects for Pr(depvar1=0, depvar2=0) are
mfx compute, predict(p00)
