In the specification is stated that this printer(hp Smart Tank 5105) is able to make douplex printing automatically.

2. For printing Duplex you need to Print pages for one side, then turn pages manually to print second side, because this printer does not have Duplex automatic hardware to turn pages and make double sided automatic.

 

3. Please check the steps in the next video to make double sided:
