My printer prints in reverse. For double sided and odd number of pages this is a nuisance, Of course I do slected two pages for printing to avoid first page single sided. But with Mac and System Preference I do not see how to reorder the printing from Page 1,2,....
Also when I select print for a document I do not see anywhere for order, except "More Options, where I can select "Reverse order", but I'm not sure what that does. And if that would solve the problem, it may not be default.

@c1defence, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

Changing the paper handling settings might resolve the issue.

 

Let's try these steps:

Step 1: Open a document to print

 

Step 2: Go to File >Print

 

Step 3: Select 'Show Details' menu.

 

            

 

Step 4: In the presets window, select the dropdown menu below 'Orientation'.

            

 

Step 4: Select 'Paper Handling' from the drop down.

            

In the 'Page Order' drop-down menu, you can either choose automatic, normal or reverse order.

 

Step 5: Choose normal. Click on print.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
