So, you're looking into the Canon PIXMA TR8620a and wondering if it prints double-sided on its own? Good news—it does. It can automatically print on both sides, which is super handy for cutting down on paper use and can give your documents that clean, professional touch without much hassle.

Now, when it comes to scanning, it's a bit of a different story. This model doesn't have automatic double-sided scanning. You'll need to flip the pages yourself if you want to scan both sides.

It does have an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) that can handle up to 20 pages at once, but you'll have to step in for that two-sided scan.

From what we've found, this manual scanning requirement can be pretty annoying, especially if you're scanning a lot of two-sided documents on the regular.

If you're mostly focused on printing and don't mind a bit of manual work for scanning, the TR8620a should work well for your home office or similar setups.

But, if you really need automated double-sided scanning, you might want to check out other printers that come with that feature built right in.
