Can't print PDF on both sides (double-sided) after reinstallation of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC

Question

My hard drive crashed, so I had to reinstall all of my software and apps, including Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.  Now I don't have an option to print PDFs double-sided ("print on both sides"). My printer is capable, it is an option in Word documents, and it worked with PDFs until now. Other forums have had luck by going to PRINTER PROPERTIES>DEVICE SETTINGS (tab)>INSTALLABLE OPTIONS>DUPLEX SETTINGS (change to installed).  I got as far as the tabs in PRINTER PROPERTIES, but I don't have a tab labeled DEVICE SETTINGS there.
