If your printer is side-by-side, you can direct Word 2016 to print your document on both sides of a sheet of paper. If your printer is so lucky, follow these steps:

Instructions for 2-sided printing in Word 2010/2013/2016

  1. Click the File tab.

  2. Click Print.

  3. In Settings, click Print One-Sided. If Print on Both Sides is available, your printer is set up for duplex printing.

Note:

  • If you are printing with a copier and printer, and the copier supports two-sided copying, it probably supports automatic two-sided printing.

  • If you have multiple printers installed, maybe one printer supports duplex printing, and the other doesn’t.

Set up one printer to print on both sides of a sheet of paper

If your printer doesn’t support automatic two-sided printing, you have two other options. You can use manual duplex printing, or you can print odd and even individual pages.

Print using Manual duplex

If your printer does not support automatic duplex printing, you can print all the pages that appear on one side of the paper, and then, after you are prompted, rotate the stack and reload the pages again into the printer.

In Word, do the following:

  1. Click the File tab.
  2. Click Print.
  3. In Settings, click Print One Sided, and then click Manually Print on Both Sides.

    When you print, Word prompts you to switch to the stack to feed the pages to the printer again.

    Note: When you print with the manual duplex option, you may want to run a test to determine the correct way to reload the page for the printer you are using.

Print odd and even pages

You can also use the following procedure to print on both sides:

  1. Click the File tab.
  2. Click Print.
  3. In Settings, click Print All Pages. Near the bottom of the gallery, click Only Print Odd Pages.
  4. Click the Print button at the top of the library.
  5. After the odd pages are printed, turn the stacks above, and then in Settings, click Print All Pages. At the bottom of the gallery, click Only Print Even Pages.
  6. Click the Print button at the top of the library.

    Note: To ensure that pages print in the correct order when printing odd pages, click File, Options, Advanced, and under Print, click Print on front of the sheet for duplex printing or Print on back of the sheet for duplex printing.
