Why each option

A duplexing assembly is a printer hardware component that enables automatic two-sided printing.

APrint in color on card stock

Color printing on card stock requires a color-capable print engine and appropriate media weight settings in the paper tray, not a duplexing assembly.

BPrint on both sidesCorrect

A duplexing assembly (duplex unit) contains rollers and a paper path that flips the page after the first side is printed, feeding it back through the print engine to produce output on both sides automatically; this is the sole purpose of the component and precisely what the accounting department is requesting.

CPrint on envelopes

Printing on envelopes requires a dedicated envelope feeder accessory and correct media size/type settings, not a duplexing assembly.

DPrint on specialized paper

Printing on specialized paper requires compatible media settings and sometimes a special input tray, which is unrelated to the duplexing assembly.
