I have a HP Photosmart Premium 309a Printer. This printer is designed to print on both sides of a page. But through Linux it can't. At least without an update to my Zorin-os-6.1-core-64. It is based on the Ubuntu. I have narrowed my search down to this. It looks like I will need to perform the install through the terminal. Can anyone explain to me how this works? http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web...9a_series.html
A Linux friend on Ubuntu forums showed me the instructions link:
http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web...all/index.html
I started with what that Manual says and I got this message.
