Control panel settings for duplex printing

Many software applications allow you to change duplex printing settings. If your software application or printer driver does not allow you to adjust duplex printing settings, you can adjust these settings through the control panel. Do not leave DUPLEX set to ON if transparencies or labels are used with the printer or serious damage may result.

CAUTION Do not open the door to the rear output bin during duplex printing. Doing so can cause jams or misprints.
