I did it. How will you know if it reset? If I did it right, It is still doing the same thing. Last time this happened it was something so simple to do but I cant remember what HP rep. told me. I am thinking its in the margins or layout or something like that.

If you did it right it will say that the NVRAM was reset on the front of the priner.  If it did not, do it again and hold the # and 6 keys a while little longer.

 

I suppose you could look at the default settings for margins but it is going to be at the default level, not for each program.  Start > Control Panel > Printers > right click > Printing Properties.

What is manual duplexing? I was unable to do anything with margins.

Nothing I have done has worked. I deleted all software and reinstalled it. Still doing same thing.

Manual duplexing is printing on both sides of the page but you have to manually put the pages back into the input tray after the first side prints.

 

Does the printed page come out OK, just with a blank page before?

 

Honestly, I really don't know what to tell you.  Does anyone else have any ideas out there?

I have reset my printer several times. I have deleted and reinstalled the software several times and it still doing it. Very annoying since I preint a lot from my printer.
