How to print on both sides of the paper (manual duplex)

How to print on both sides of the paper (manual duplex)

Printing on both sides of the paper reduces printing costs.

Although you can use Tray 1 or the 550-sheet tray to print the first side of the duplex job, only use Tray 1 to print the second side.

You can choose how you want your job duplexed: Long Edge or Short Edge.

•Long Edge means pages are bound along the long edge of the page (left edge for portrait, top edge for landscape).

•Short Edge means pages are bound along the short edge of the page.

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