I have purchased Officejet Pro 6960. In reviews this is described as"including duplex color printing, scanning and copying" .The printer I have does not duplex scan or copy. Has anyone else had this problem? If so how has it been resolved or not?

can only Duplex (two-sided) printing: Automatic and manual duplexing.

 

Copying:

Automatic duplexing (two-sided copying) from ADF, 6970 series only

Scanning:

Automatic duplexing (two-sided scanning) from ADF, 6970 series only

 

If you also want automatic duplexing for copying and scanning, you should buy a 6970 series printer.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

Hi @4fat-Cats ,

Thanks for using the HP Support Community. Apologies for jumping in here.

 

@Andr-1611  is right, the HP OfficeJet Pro 6960 does not have a Duplex ADF Scanner (only Duplexer for Printing)

 

However, if you're scanning 2-sided documents, it can automatically sort out the pages for you if you are using the HP FULL featured software.

 

If you need to copy 2-sided document, this resource (example) will be useful.

 

Hope that helps!
