Printing both sides of paper (duplexing)

The printer can automatically print on both sides of paper when an optional duplex printing accessory (duplexer) is installed and configured. See the documentation that is included with the duplexer for installation instructions.

CAUTION

Never try to print on both sides of labels, envelopes, transparencies, or paper that is heavier than

 

199 g/m2 (53 lb). Damage to the printer or a jam can result.

Note

To print on both sides of paper

1If necessary, configure the printer driver to recognize the duplexer. See the printer software help for instructions.

2Load (orient) paper for duplexing.

For better duplexing performance, set the size and type for Tray 1.

3Select the Print on both sides option from the program or printer driver. If you cannot select this option from one of those locations, set it at the printer control panel. (In the Configure Device menu, select the Printing menu, select Duplex, and then select ON.)

4Set the Binding and Orientation options from the Print dialog box, if possible. If not, set them from the printer control panel. See Layout options for printing on both sides of paper for more information.
