HP OfficeJet Pro 8134 2 sided scanning

[DanT03]

Does anyone know how to use or enable the 2 sided scanning feature on my new OfficeJet Pro 8134 printer. I can't seem to find the settings in the HP app or on the printers screen. Do I need to enable it first. Many thanks.

Unfortunately,

This printer series does not support automatic 2-sided scan.

You cannot enable what does  not exist.

Product Name

HP OfficeJet Pro 8134 All-in-One Printer

Duplex ADF Scanning

No; 1 side scan ADF only

The full driver printer software (supported versions of Windows) includes HP Scan.

HP Scan helps to make the manual process of multi-page 2-sided scans less bothersome.

Thank you very much for the reply. I was under the impression that it did do duplex scanning as advertised by HP. I think HP might have falsely advertised the product. Many thanks.

@DanT03 

You are welcome.

I am sorry the printer is not what you expected.

The top-of-line, at this writing, the OfficeJet Pro 9130e series, includes automatic 2-sided scan.

Advertising by HP that does not match the specifications should not be the case -- HP is careful about advertising printer features.

-- At this writing --

The USA HP Store still has one of the models in this series listed.

The 8135e is essentially the same as your 8134 printer -- color might be different, for example.
