Enabling double Sided printing

I have a MacBook with 10.14.4 MacOS Mojave and have recently bought a wireless HP Printer Deskjet 2600.

I'm trying to enable double sided printing however when I go to print my document, it won't even allow me to edit from single sided to double sided printing; I've gone into system preferences to edit it but there's no option anywhere. I'm not very tech savvy so this is really infuriating me.

Does anyone have any ideas? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

According to the manual, it doesn't have a duplexing capability. You have to do it manually by first printing the odd pages, then turning the stack over and printing the even pages:

To print on both sides of the page (OS X and macOS)

From the File menu in your software, choose Print.
In the Print dialog, choose Paper Handling from the pop-up menu and set Page Order to Normal.
Set Pages to Print to Odd Only.
Click Print.
After all of the odd numbered pages have printed, remove the document from the output tray.
Reload the document so that the end that came out of the printer is now going into the printer and the blank side of the document is facing toward the front of the printer.
In the Print dialog, return to the Paper Handling pop-up menu and set the page order to Normal and the pages to print to Even Only.
Click Print.
