HP 419 Ink Tank printer - - Manual Duplex not working for pdf documents

[dhirenjais]

Manual Duplex working for Word documents but its not working for Pdf documents. How to resolve. 

While printing pdf documents It's showing the option as in image 1, but prints documents in continuous order even after selecting "Print on both sides of paper", which makes the Manual Duplex option useless. While printing Word documents it pops up the message for continuation after printing one side of the page as in image_2.     I want to know why it happens and how to get this popup (Image2) in pdf documents also so that it will work as proper manual duplexing.

Hi @dhirenjais,

Welcome to the HP Support Community

I'd like to help!

I understand you are unable to duplex print pdf documents 

To assist better -

Are you able to make a 2sided copy?

Follow the below instructions -

Print on both sides of the paper (Windows)

Use HP printer software to set up a two-sided (duplex) printing job with an inkjet or LaserJet printer.

To avoid page ordering issues, load enough paper into the paper tray to complete your print job.

NOTE:

To avoid paper jams, do not print on both sides of envelopes, photo paper, glossy paper, or transparencies. Do not print on paper lighter than 60 g/m2 (16 lb) or heavier than 105 g/m2 (28 lb).

Open the document you are printing, and then click FilePrint.

Click Printer Properties, Preferences, or Printer Setup, depending on what displays.

The Properties window opens.

Determine if you want the pages to read as a booklet or a tablet.

Description

Booklet layout

Tablet layout

Use one of the following methods to open and select duplex printing settings. Menu names vary by printer model.

If a Layout, Features, or Finishing tab is available, click it, and select binding and page flip options in the Print on Both Sides or Print on Both Sides Manually settings.

If a Printing Shortcut tab is available, click it, select the Two-sided (Duplex) Printing shortcut, and then select a page flip option from the Print on Both Sides Manually or Two-sided (Duplex) Printing menu.

Click OK, and then click Print.

If the printer does not automatically print the other side, continue with these steps to manually reload the pages to print the other side.

Remove the printed pages from the output tray, and then reload them into the input tray.

NOTE:

Follow any instructions on how to reload the paper that display on the computer.

For most front-loading inkjet printers, load the stack printed side facing up with the bottom or top edge into the tray.

For most front-loading LaserJet printers, load the stack printed side facing down with the bottom or top edge into the tray.

For most rear-loading printers, load the stack printed side facing down with the bottom edge into the tray.

Click Continue to print the other side of the pages.

Duplex settings might carry over to the next print job. To change back to one-sided printing, remove the check next to Print on Both Sides or select None from the drop-down menu.

Please go through the question above, all the time I am selecting "Print on both sides of paper" in pdf doc, but its printing only one-sided in continuous order, not giving me the time to manually flip the paper.  I need the resolution for the Manual Duplex which is not properly working in pdf documents. Are there any other settings/tricks or any Pdf Reader issues or compatibility issues? Please list any pdf reader which works properly with this HP Ink Tank Printer 419 for Manual Duplexing.

Does thos occur only with pdf documents?

Have you tried duplex printing from other applications?

Let me know!

[dhirenjais]

I have tried different pdf readers like Foxit Reader, Nitro pdf Reader and Sumatra PDF.  But same issue. Generally I print pdf and MS word, other than this I haven't tried other applications.
