Two-sided printing (duplexing)

With certain types of paper, you can print on both sides of a sheet of paper (called “two- sided printing” or “duplex printing”).

You can perform manual duplexing by first printing only the odd pages, flipping the pages over, and then printing only the even pages.

For more information, see Guidelines for two-sided (duplex) printing.
