I just learned how to do two-sided printing from this video, and successfully executed this procedure and got my file out. However, I found that two things were weird. First, for my 5-page file, page 2 and 4 came out first, and then page 3 was printed on the back of 2, and page 5 was printed on the back of 4, but page 1 was printed out independently, which is undesirable because you do want 1/2, 3/4, 5 but not 1, 2/3, 4/5. Secondly, I had to manually rearrange the page order, because the final page order came out from the printer was 1, 3/2, 5/4.
I have a HP LaserJet M110w and I use a simple recipe for printing *contiguous* pages by flipping on the long edge: 1. Print the odd pages. 2. If the number of printed pages is odd, remove the last printed sheet from the printed batch (this is important to not leave the first printed page orphan) 3. Insert the printed batch back into the printer with the top of the page towards the printer (not towards you) and with the printed face down. 4. Print the even pages in reversed order. If your pages are not contiguous, start the process to print them (print dialog) and choose the pages to print, but save as PDF. Then use the same recipe above to print the resulting PDF document two-sided.

So there it is, you have to physically take the printed pages and RE INTRODUCE the sheets in the correct orientation so that the back side of the pages are printed. All these printers do not, I said do not, take those sheets back into itself. Its the same issue with scanning two sided documents...yes you can introduce a number of pages for the scanning but then YOU HAVE TO TURN THE SHEETS over so the the adf tray can scan the back side. Its not just "put your pages in, click a button and get double sided copies." Unless I missed something.

I have a HP 2540 and on double sided printing, it misses pages, sometimes prints alternate pages upside down, sometimes it prints the same pages on front and back (I thought it was me at first). So I waste about 2 - 3 pages for every successful printing batch on longer print jobs. Not much use for anything except invitations to parties. No use for any serious business application.

same here. i am using WPS office. the problem seems related to the office software rather than HP. just before printing, close the document and reopen it. that solves the issue to my side. i have found that by trial and error. i have noticed that printing a pdf using sumatra or foxit, the printer works okay. i have exported the document into pdf, print it from pdf. that was initially, but then, i have found that closes and reopening the doc solves the issue.
I use ink tank 115. When I use double side paper option, the printer continuously print pages but the pages being printed upside-down alternately for odd and even pages.

Hello, when I go to my printer settings before printing, I have the setting "border" which is activated and allows me to change at any given time. However, the setting underneath it, "Two-sided" says it´s off. I tried ticking the boxes underneath it, which are "reverse page order" and "flip horizontally" but the Two-sided setting is still unlocked and it won´t let me turn it on. Can you please assist me with this problem? (BY THE WAY, I´ve tried this with both my pc being connected to the printer via cable and my pc being connected to it wireless)

Hello I have a 6978 printer and I am trying to print doubleside but the front doesn't match the back. I loaded 8x11 paper in bottom tray and changed to thick paper plain. On my windows I opened up the PDF file and hit CTRL P to print, settings, double sided, short edge, landscape. And still getting front and back to not line up so I can't cut the cards. What am I doing wrong?
+Craig Walsh Can you go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printers > Select your printer (Officejet Pro 6970) > Printer Properties > Device Settings Under Installable Options, make sure the the "Automatic Duplexing Unit is selected as "Installed"
+Chua Joan Try these steps: Open Control Panel, go to Devices and Printers section. ... Right click on your printer and select Create shortcut. Windows couldn't create a shortcut in Control Panel, hence its asks you to create a shortcut at Desktop instead. ... Go to Desktop and you'll find the printer icon/shortcut there.

hi im trying to print both side on my paper using hp 2510 but it seems like i didnt find any the duplex word. so is it because hp 2510 doesnt support duplex setting ?? pls help me
+Nurfarah Najwa This printer does not support duplex (two-sided) printing. Sorry. At least it does not automatically. The only way to do this is going to be a bit of a process as you will need to print the odd pages first and then load the same paper back in and print even on the back side of the paper. This is known as manual duplex printing.
Do we have to install the hp smart app on our computers for the printer to be available to print?? because I'm not getting the option of the printer I have

I tried to print with double sided on 2622. If I give double sided command for 1-20pages, after printing page no 20 it asks to flip the page, When I flip it does not print page 19 but print page 18. And if I don't flip the page and continue it keep printing 20 18 16 the even number pages. After finishing upto page 2, it does not give time to flip the whole stack but continue printing odd number pages. How do I solve it?
@@HPSupport I know and did everything on this thread. Even after that if I have extra pages on the tray, the printer goes on printing first odd number pages, then even numbered or vice versa. Does not give me time to flip. Only way left us giving exactly the number of pages I need to print, then flip. Or giving the command odd page only, then flip and even page only!!! Please tell me if there is other way to resolve this. Printer is 2622. Please don't give link of the support groups. I already have visited all those.
Hi, I just bought HP 419 printer a few days ago and it is not printing on both sides even after giving the flip on long edge option. It just prints on one side and takes in the next page and prints on it in reverse. It does that for all the pages in a document printing pages in reverse order of the document. Any idea how this issue can be resolved?
