Printing tasks

Duplexing a print job (two-sided printing)

Duplex printing (or two-sided printing) lets you print on both sides of a sheet of paper. For paper sizes that are acceptable for duplex printing, see Duplex unit specifications.

Note: Print duplex jobs only on paper weighing 16–24 lb.

To duplex all jobs:

1Make sure the printer is on and the Ready message appears.

2Press Menu until you see Finishing Menu, and then press Select.

3Press Menu until you see Duplex, and then press Select.

4Press Menu until you see On, and then press Select.

5Press Return until the Ready message appears.

To duplex an individual print job:

1From the computer’s software application, select File Æ Print.

2Click Properties (or Options, Printer, or Setup, depending on the application) to view the printer driver settings.

3From the Setup tab, select either Long Edge or Short Edge.

4Click OK.

5Click OK on the Print window to send the job to print.

Warning: As the printer processes a duplex print job, it partially ejects a sheet to the standard output bin, and then pulls the sheet back inside. Do not touch the sheet while it is partially ejected. Doing so could damage the printer or cause a jam. Remove pages only after they have fully exited the printer to a bin.

Duplex printing on letterhead

•From the multipurpose feeder—Load the letterhead with the logo face down and entering the printer last.

•From the trays—Load the letterhead with the logo face up and facing toward the rear of the printer.

Note: Duplex jobs need to be sent to the standard output bin; the rear exit does not support duplex printing.
