Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

 

Perhaps you have inadvertently "downgraded" your printer model.

 

At least some of the printers in the DeskJet series do not support automatic duplex (2 sided) printing.

 

Reference - Sample Specifications document

Product Specifications for the HP DeskJet 2720 All-in-One Printer (3XV18B)

Duplex printing
Manual (driver support provided)

 

Install the Full Feature Software - full driver printer software.

Follow the instructions to print duplex manually.
