Printing on both sides of the paper (duplexing)

Understanding the two-sided printing (duplexing) function

The printer has a built-in duplex unit that lets you print on both sides of the paper automatically. This function is also known as two-sided printing or duplexing.

Note: Automatic two-sided printing (duplexing) works only with plain paper in letter and A4 sizes. If you want to print two-sided documents on another size or type of paper, use the manual duplexing method.

To print a two-sided copy, the A light must be on. The A button works in tandem with the Duplexing settings in the

printer software. To access the Duplexing settings:

1With a document open, click File ŒPrint.

2Click Properties, Preferences, Options, or Setup.

3Click the Print Layout tab.

The Duplexing area is on the lower portion of the dialog.

The options under the Duplexing drop-down box are “Use Printer Settings,” “On,” “Off,” and “Manual.”
