Manual Duplex Printing (Type 1 model)
To print on both sides of paper using the Type 1 model, use the Manual Duplex function.
In Manual Duplex printing, the machine prints only even pages of a document first, asks you to reload
the output paper turned upside down into the machine, and then prints odd pages on the back sides of
the paper.
• This function is only available when printing from a computer running a Windows operating system
using the PCL6 printer driver.
• The machine always uses tray 1 to print on the back sides of paper, regardless of the tray you
selected with the printer driver. Make sure that the paper settings of the trays that will be used
match the paper settings of the print job to avoid paper mismatch errors.
1. Open the file you want to print on your computer.
2. Open the printer driver's properties.
3. On the [Setup] tab, select [Long edge bind (to left/top)] or [Short edge bind (to top/left)]
from the [Duplex:] list.
Manual duplex printing requires that [Zoom %] be set at 100% and [Print On] be checked on the
[Paper] tab. If not, a dialog box appears to inform you that the setting must be changed; clicking
[OK] will automatically change the settings.
4. Configure printing preferences according to your needs, and then click [OK] twice.
A Manual Duplex guidance screen appears on your computer showing the subsequent procedure,
and the machine starts printing even pages.
When all even pages are printed out, "Set Bck Side in Tray1" appears on the machine's control
panel display.
5. Reload the output paper into tray 1 with the printed side up.
If paper orientation is portrait, put the top of paper towards you for [Long edge bind (to left/top)]
or towards the machine rear for [Short edge bind (to top/left)].
If paper orientation is landscape, put the top of paper to the right for [Long edge bind (to left/top)]
or to the left for [Short edge bind (to top/left)].
6. Press [Continue].
Odd pages will then be printed.
• When you print a document whose page count is an odd number, a blank page is printed last. This
blank page is the last page of the document. When you start printing on the other side of the
paper, include this blank page in the bundle of paper.
