How to Print Double-Sided in Vista
When trying to save paper, it is a good idea to print contents onto both sides of a single sheet of paper. This is also referred to as double-sided printing. It is possible to do this in Windows Vista, as long as you have a printer that performs double-sided printing. The printer, once it finishes printing the documents on one side of the page, actually brings the paper back into the printer and prints on the reverse side.
