Two-Sided Printing (Manual Duplexing)

The supplied printer driver for Windows® 95, 98 and for Windows NT® Workstation Version 4.0 enables manual duplex printing. (For more information, see the Help screen for the printer driver.)

If you are using Parallel Cable, please select LPT1 on the printer driver. The machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper first. Then, the Windows® driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well, or you may get a paper jam. Very thin or very thick paper is not recommended.

Manual Feed Slot

Your machine has a manual feed slot above the paper cassette. You can load envelopes and special print media one at a time into this slot. You do not have to remove paper from the paper cassette. (For information about acceptable paper see, “Printting on Envelops Thicker Paper and Card Stock” in this chapter.) Insert the sheet of paper with the side you wish to print on face up in the manual feed slot.

Use the manual feed slot to print or copy on labels, envelopes, card stock or thicker paper.

If you use labels and envelopes, they must be of a type suitable for use with a laser printer. If you use incorrect types it is possible to damage or contaminate the drum surface and cause printing problems.
