I'm not sure this is the right category to ask for help with this but someone will tell me, I'm sure.
I have struggled incessantly to get HP 5280 to print correctly on both sides. The laborious way, of course, is to insert all the odd numbers, then switch the pages round and insert all the even numbers. but when I ask HP to print odd and even pages it seems that what I know as odd and even doesn't correspond with what HP believes! So I then resort to entering pages manually as mentioned above. This, of course, takes some time.
So I tried duplex printing manually. Sounded easy but - why, when I ask for pages 1-6 for instance, do I only get some of them? I tried doing it the hard way by inserting page numbers but then HP decides to print pages 1,5,9 etc instead of 1,3,5,7,9. I followed the onscreen instructions re turning the pages round but the numbers are then no longer sequential and some are even missing altogether.
As I do a lot of printing out of chapters with numbered pages this is so frustrating.
Can anyone please give me easy step by step instructions on how to do duplex printing? I would be so grateful if someone can tell me how.
