How can I change output to print face down instead of face up? I have an HP Officejet Pro 9020

Observation:

Offhand, I do not know of a way to switch the operation to "face down".

This printer series uses a traditional output and tray extension - printed content is expelled face up.

I did have a much loved OfficeJet Pro 8740 that included the "Print Forward" design - Rather than a traditional extended output tray, the printer output printed content face-down in an integrated tray design.  It was described (for example):

"HP Print Forward Design: advanced paper handling for business, no trays or extensions, private and hassle-free output. Advanced duplex capability with single-pass duplex copy/scan"

The only time "Face down" seemed a "questionable" feature (in my opinion) was when I was printing photos.  Still - it seemed fine even then as long as I used recommended photo paper and did not rush over and squish the photo into the tray as I was removing it.  Lovely printer.
