Automatic 2-Sided Printing
Automatic 2-sided printing (duplexing) is available from trays 1-4; it is not available from the Multi-Purpose Tray (MPT).
Automatic 2-sided printing is available for all paper sizes that are supported by trays 1-4 but only when the paper type is set to either Laser Paper or Heavy Laser Paper. Paper weight must be between 64-105 g/m2 (17-28 lb. bond). For best results with 2-sided printing, use 90 g/m2 (24 lb. bond) laser paper.
Note
See Manual 2-Sided Printing (page 41) for information about duplexing heavier paper weights.
For best results with automatic 2-sided printing, do not use heavy toner coverage on the even-numbered pages of your print job.
Caution
Use only laser bond paper for automatic 2-sided printing in the Universal trays. Do not use any specialty paper (such as glossy coated paper) to print automatic 2-sided printing.
Damage caused by using unsupported paper for 2-sided printing may not be covered by the printer’s warranty.
