To automatically duplex, you need the optional duplexing mechanism. If you don't have this, your only option is to print the odd pages first, put the papers back in the tray, then print the even pages. When you put the pages back into the paper tray, make sure they are print side up. Try with a 5 or 6 page document first to be sure you get the orientation right.
If you HAVE the optional duplexing unit (which sticks out the front just above the main paper tray) then post a reply here and I'll try to help you further. 99% of the people that own this unit do NOT have the optional duplexer!
Turn the printer off for a few minutes and then back on. If that does not fix the problem, try to have the print queue cleared and tray again. Most of the time it's a PDF file that causes this problem. If that does not fix it, it may need a new Jetdirect card.
Print a configuration page. Press the Menu key until you see Information menu, press the item key until you see print configuration, then press the select key. A configuration page will print and you will also obtain the network information, unless there is a problem with the network card or circuit.
How are you connectiong it to the Mac? If you are using a USB to Parrell device, that may be the problem. The best and stable way to do it is by using the optional print server.
The 4100 has a formatter board on the left side of the printer (looking at printer from the back).This board has a slot for an optional EIO print server board. You can purchase this through HP and then set the printer up through your router/network.
