To print on both sides by using the built-in duplexer

The built-in duplexer is included only with the HP LaserJet 5200dtn printer. It is available as an accessory for the other models.

For best duplexing results, HP recommends 90 to 105 g/m2 (24 to 28 lb) media.

1.Insert enough paper into one of the trays to accommodate the print job. If you are loading special paper such as letterhead, load it in one of the following ways:

●For tray 1, load the letterhead paper with the front side down, bottom-edge first.

●For all other trays, load the letterhead paper with the front side facing up, and the top edge toward the back of the tray.

CAUTION Do not load paper that is heavier than 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond). Jamming could result.

2.Open the printer driver (see Gaining access to printer driver settings).

3.On the Finishing tab, select Print on Both Sides.
