Correct Order for Rear Bin
The HP LaserJet 2410, 2420, and 2430 printers have a door in the back that can be opened to allow
the paper to go straight out the back of the printer. This bin can be used to minimize curl and avoid
jams with heavier paper, such as cardstock. This check box orders the pages correctly for this rear
bin so that they come out in the right order. This feature is disabled if automatic duplexing is enabled.
Print on Both Sides
The default setting for the Print on Both Sides option is off (not selected). Print on Both Sides is
available when the following conditions exist:
■ Type is: on the Paper tab is set to any type except Labels, Transparency, or Envelope.
NOTE Print on Both Sides (Manually) is available for Cardstock 164 x 200 g/m 2 .
■ Size is: is set to any size except Envelope #10, Envelope #DL, Envelope #C5, Envelope
Monarch, or Envelope B5.
When Paper Size is set to Letter, Legal, or A4, selecting Print on Both Sides makes the Booklet
Printing option available.
Automatically printing on both sides
The duplexing unit in the product prints on two sides of a sheet when the Print on Both Sides option
is specified in the print job. The HP LaserJet 2420d, 2420dn, and 2430dtn printer models come with
a duplexing unit installed.
To achieve the best print quality when printing on the second side of the page, the product needs to
make adjustments to its print modes. When you select a media type, you are, in effect, instructing the
product to use a group of settings, such as fuser temperature and print speed, to produce the best
possible quality. This group of settings is known as a mode or print mode, and a different print mode
is used with each media type. Print-mode adjustments are automatic when the duplexing unit is used.
Manually printing on both sides
Select the Print on Both Sides (Manually) check box to print on the second side of the media for
the HP LaserJet 2410, 2420n, 2430t and 2430tn printer models, which do not have a duplexing unit
installed. Also select Print on Both Sides (Manually) on the other HP LaserJet 2410, 2420, and
2430 printer models for media types that are not available when using the automatic duplexing unit,
such as cardstock and thick media.
NOTE To make the Print on Both Sides (Manually) check box available in the document
options, select the Allow Manual Duplexing check box on the Configure tab in the
Properties print-driver tabs. See
Paper Handling Options in this chapter.
