If you don't get an error message when it fails to pull the page back in, it's probably a setting that is misconfigured. Make sure that duplexing is enabled and selected.

If you are getting an error message, depending on what the message says will help to determine the cause of the problem. It could be a bad or dirty sensor, failing to recognize the paper, or a dirty roller that isn't grabbing the paper, or a motor or clutch that isn't turning on to pull the paper back in. Also make sure that the paper tray is set for he correct size of paper.
