I agree. I think your printer needs to support double-sided printing initially, as the drivers with this information would be loaded onto your computer when you installed your printer software. InDesign would pick this information up from your driver(s) and display the double-sided printing options in your print dialogue box. The option has to 'exist' in order for InDesign (or any other application) to show in your print box.
It's difenitly a printer issue. You would have to print one side of the job, the put the paper back into the printer and print the back. Example print page one, reload it (you need to know what side the printer prints, usually it is the back) then print out page two. Do the same for three and put it back in for four.
Well I'm new to adobe InDesign, I don't know much. I'm not sure if the two side by side sheets will be printed as a double length print, or are they simply front and back displays. What I'm trying to do is bind single double-sided pages without folds in my portfolio. If this video shows the only way indesign can create pages, then I'll just have to cut them in half to make them single pages.
I want to print double-sided pages (#1 on front and #2 on back, #3 on front and #4 on back, and so on....) and then bind these single sheets by using coils. I can't seem to find how to do that in adobe InDesign. So far, the only page styles that I'm seeing are spreads. How can I just print single pages with content and page numbers on both front and back sides? I'd greatly appreciate it if you or anyone could help me! I've been looking everywhere online but I can't seem to find it...thank you

I could find plenty of information on double sided pages in InDesign. But isn't it more of a printer issue?

I've got CS2 but this was still very useful for getting started.
