Printing on both sides of the paper (duplexing) automatically

The printer has a built-in duplex unit that lets you print on both sides of the paper automatically.

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 type or size of paper, use the manual duplexing method.

Printing on both sides of the paper (duplexing) manually

If you want to print a two-sided (duplex) document on a size or type of paper other than plain letter- or A4-size paper, you must use the manual duplex method. This method involves printing the odd-numbered pages, then flipping and reloading the stack of paper to print the even-numbered pages on the other side of the sheets.
