NOTE The duplex unit is an optional accessory that is available for the
HP Photosmart Pro B8300 series printer. It may be purchased separately in some
countries/regions (see

print settings .
You can also access this feature from the Printing Shortcuts tab. Open the printer driver, select
the Printing Shortcuts tab, and select the feature from the What do you want to do? drop-
down list.
For Windows 2000 and Windows XP, verify that the duplex unit is installed and that the

● Print on both sides of a page without manually reloading the page.
● Print long documents quickly and efficiently.
● Use less paper by printing on both sides of paper.
● Create professional-looking brochures, reports, newsletters, and other special items.
