AFTER INSTALLATION OF THE BASIC DRIVE SOFTWARE, THE PRINTING SETTING IS SET TO BOTH SIDE PRINTING MANUALLY. THE PRINTER SHOULD HAVE BEEN SET TO BOTH SIDE PRINTING AUTOMATICALLY. HOW CAN I CHANGE IT BACK TO AUTOMATIC SETTING?

Common issue, on your PC, go to control panel > devices and settings and then right click your printer and select printer properties from the drop down menu.  Click device settings tab and scroll down to installable options and find the duplex option and change it to installed.
