This printer does only manual double side printing by going to printing preferences and select either Pront on long Edge or print on short edge. It has worked before. It prints one side than you flip overe the printed page to print the other side.

Now it just prints one side at a time regardless of setting to both sides.

Most printers can duplex print manually and some with a build in duplexer can duplex print automatically. In both cases a command from the print driver must be sent to the printer so that the printer knows the incoming job needs to be duplexed or not.

Review the settings in your print driver and confirm that you have the checkbox or application criterea to duplex print and try again. If you beleive the correct duplexing feature is being selected then try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver from the latest software upgrades available for your OS on http://support.hp.com.

Once you send the correct instructions to the printer that duplexing is required the printer will behave accordingly.
