To print a multiple-page document, follow these steps:

1.Select the Print on Both Sides (Manually) check box.

2.Click OK. The even-number pages of the document print.

3.When the control panel shows the MANUALLY FEED message, insert the stack of paper (on which the even-number pages have been printed) as indicated in the following figure.

Figure 4-10Print on Both Sides Instructions dialog box

When you have completed the steps that appear in the dialog box, the second half of the print job prints on the back side of the stack of paper. The driver does not require the program to specifically support odd- and even-page printing, because the driver coordinates this function.

Flip pages up

Use the Flip pages up check box to specify the duplex-binding option. By default, the Flip pages up check box is not available. It is available only when Print on both sides is selected. The following table demonstrates the results of selecting this check box, depending on the paper orientation selected on the Finishing tab.

When Print on both sides is selected, the document preview image changes to show a spiral binding along either the left edge or the top edge of the page. In addition, a folded-over corner appears in the lower-right portion of the preview image, indicating that printing occurs on the back side. An arrow on the folded-over corner points in the direction that the pages would be flipped if they were bound together.
