Print on both sides (duplexing)

Using the Windows print driver, you can print on both sides of a sheet of media by manually turning the media over and feeding it into the device again.

In Mac OS, you can print on both sides of a sheet by first printing the odd-numbered pages, turning the pages over, and then printing the even-numbered pages. Mac OS is only supported by the HP Officejet J3600.

Guidelines for printing on both sides of a page

Always use media that conforms to the device specifications. For more information, see Understand specifications for supported media.

Do not print on both sides of transparencies, envelopes, photo paper, glossy media, or paper lighter than 16 lb bond (60 g/m2) or heavier than 28 lb bond (105 g/m2). Jams might occur with these media types.

Several kinds of media require a specific orientation when you print on both sides of a page, such as letterhead, preprinted paper, and paper with watermarks and prepunched holes.
