Tips for two-sided printing

For best results when using the auto-duplex unit, note the following guidelines:

lThe auto-duplex unit supports the following paper sizes: 13 by 19 in, 11 by 17 in, Legal, Letter, Executive, A3+, A3, A4, and B5 (JIS). It does not support banners, index cards, envelopes, or custom sizes smaller than B5 (JIS) or larger than 13 by 19 in/A3+.

lYou can increase the ink dry time by selecting Advanced Features from the Features tab of the printer driver. Increasing the drying time might prevent ink smudges in two-sided printing.

lDo not print on paper heavier than 28 lbs (105 gsm), or on both sides of labels or transparencies. Jams might occur when using these types of media for two-sided printing, and damage to the printer might occur when printing on both sides of labels.
