Hi Nana50

 

It sounds like one of the settings needs to be tweaked. Use the following link to adjust the settings to print on both sides of the page without on side being update down. > Printing on Both Sides of the Paper (Duplexing)
 

I suspect you currently have short edge binding selected, you will need to choose long edge binging.

If you would like to see an example of both take a look at this video > 2 Sided Printing Long Edge vs Short Edge

 

I hope this helps. Please let me know if this resolves the issue, thanks.

Has any one solved this problem ? I have an HP officejet pro 8600 plus and a windows-2010 system.  Impossible to figure out how to print a 36 page pdf file as an  18 page duplex document.
