Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

Unfortunately, this Printer series does not include an automatic 2-sided print feature.

 Print on both sides of the paper with an HP printer

 

Additional Information

 

Should you be using a supported version of Windows, the full driver printer software supports a manual method for print or scan that might a bit less painful.
