printing guidelines

• The printer automatically prints odd-numbered pages first. Once the

odd-numbered pages are printed, a message appears prompting you
to reload the paper so that the even-numbered pages can be printed.

• If you have purchased the HP Two-Sided Printing Accessory, you can

print both sides of the paper automatically. Follow the directions
included with that product.

(The HP Two-Sided Printing Accessory

cannot be used with all printers.)

For best results use hp products.
