Copying duplex documents

from the copy screen touch the duplex button on the display and choose 2 sided > 2 sided. if it is not available in the menu the duplex unit may have failed repeatedly and shut itself down in which case you would need to go into simulation mode and perform a u906.

I think it is mechanical problem so go out and fix it up.

I have the same problem and was told by the telephone helpdesk that the machine cannot copy double-sided to double-side. The duplexing referred to is copying 2 single-sided documents onto one single sheet on both sides....Like whoever does that! This is misleading on Xerox's part . Colin B.

To automatically scan and print, you need to use the automatic document feeder (for letter-sized documents) and have the HP Automatic Two-sided Printing Accessory installed.

Then to use the duplex printing feature, you need to set the printer properties to use the duplex feature. In Windows, open a document to print then click on File Print. Choose Setup and then Properties or Preferences (depending on your OS). Then click on the Features tab and set Two-sided Printing to Automatic. (This is a drop-down menu on the Features tab.)

You also need to set the scan settings for two-sided in the HP Solution Center. (If you just want to copy the document, you can set this from the Control Panel on the J4680.)

If you want to do this manually, you can scan each side of the pages. Then print them one page at a time. Then when the ink is dry, put the page back into the paper tray. (Note: this could result in paper jams.) The printer prints on the underside of each page put into the paper tray with the top of the page printing on the forward part of the page.

I hope this helps.

Mr. Agarwal
you have to turn off the duplex scanning option under copy settings this will solve the issue
You can go to settings and look for Copy setup or copy settings i dont remember well but you get an option of DUPLEX COPY or DUPLEX SCAN you have to turn off this.

First, ensure you are connecting the scanner to your computer. I'm assuming USB connection, and that you're using an operating system supported by this device.

Next, install the drivers and software for this device. Those should have come with an installation disc, but if you don't have that disc, you can get them from the PIXMA MP830 support site, here:

To scan a single document, place the document:
1. Place the document face down on the platen glass.
2. Open the MP Navigator 2.2 software.
3. Click Scan Photo/Document.
4. Click Document Type drop-down arrow and select the type of document to be scanned. Chose from the following types.

• Color Document(Simplex): Select this to scan one side of color documents.
• Color Document(Duplex): Select this to scan both sides of color documents.
• B/W Document(Simplex): Select this to scan one side of monochrome documents.
• B/W Document(Duplex): Select this to scan both sides of monochrome documents.
• Text(Simplex): Select this to scan one side of text documents.
• Text(Duplex): Select this to scan both sides of text documents.

Open HP Solution Center, click on Settings, click on Scan Preferences, select "Scan both sides of original when using duplex feeder."

or
Open Solution Center, click on Scan Document, and you should have a check box towards the bottom of the window which would say 'scan both sides of the original document'. check that box and start scanning.

Duplexor printing is the only feature which HP All-In-One printer offers, where you can print in both sides of the paper from your computer if you have multiple pages to print.

But SORRY you cannot make a duplex copy on the stand alone machine itself.

But still you can scan and print the same on the duplexor.

For Scanning Multiple pages in one Folder:

All you need to do is if the All-In-One Printer driver and software is completly installed in your computer, Then you should have a icon in your desktop as HP Solution Center / Go to
Start> All Programs> HP> HP Solution Center>
Then click on Scan document> The in the option where it says Where do you want to send the scanned documents> Click on the drop down and select PDF / Word then make syre you
have selected Show preivew Box> Then click On Scan>
After it shows the preivew> Click on I Accept> NOW IT WILL ASK IF YOU WANT TO SCAN ANOTHER DOCUMENT> Click yes on this and replace the document> and the click on
NEW SCAN> and follow the same steps to scan multiple pages, till you have finished scanning all and then> When it asks if you want to scan another document> Click on No.

And then print the same through the duplexor

Good Luck
