Print on both sides of the paper (duplex printing)

The easiest way to produce double-sided publications is to print them on a printer that supports duplex printing. You can usually learn whether your printer supports duplex printing either by looking at the information that was included with the printer or by looking at the printer's properties. Some printers offer the option of automatically printing on both sides of a sheet of paper (automatic duplex printing). Other printers provide instructions so that you can manually reinsert pages to print the second side (manual duplex printing). Some printers do not offer duplex printing at all.

Tip: If your printer supports duplex printing and you are having trouble printing duplex, on the Copies & Pages pop-up menu, click Layout. Then, on the Two-Sided pop-up menu, make sure that Off is not selected.

If your printer doesn't offer automatic duplex printing, you can follow these steps to manually print on both sides of the paper.
