Double Sided Printing

I was recently asked a question about printing on double sided.  Printing on both sides of a papers saves both money and storage space.

By default, you might want to leave printer settings on one sided, only because court filings or letters probably need to be sent one sided, and you don't want to have to reprint things that went to two sides by mistake.  When printing from Google, you should see a check box for two sided printing.  For other apps, there is usually a printer options window that comes up before printing.  You can select two sided there if your printer supports it.

Most of the HP printers in use at your desk are capable of printing on two sides, although some of our older models do not.  If the name of the printer has a D in it, D is for duplex and you should have an option to print to two sides.  Similarly, almost all copiers firm-wide can print on both sides.  You can also request that reliable print out on two sides if you want them to do that.

If you have any questions about how to print on two sides, feel free to call the help desk.
