Is there a way (software) to print on both sides of the paper when using a an HP Deskjet 540 printer? Maybe even add an odd/even setting to all the "Print" menus?

It's a hassle to have to manually flip each paper.

I'm not positive but I think that's what the Collate setting is for in the print properties box that pops up before you actually start printing. Collate lets it print only odd or even numbered pages, then you flip the paper and print the other pages.

No way to print both sides without flipping the paper, the printer has print heads in only one position, and it prints on the top side of the paper no matter what you do, so you have to flip it yourself, the printer doesn't have any way to do that.
