Double-sided printing

The DocuColor 2060 is capable of automatically duplex printing on up to 220 gsm media. During automatic duplex printing mode the machine will make printing process control changes during the side 2 pass, in an attempt to closely match the image on side 1. These make printing process control changes are necessary because the paper will be drier and hotter than it was during the first pass and therefore have different electrostatic properties. Some gloss differential may still be visible, especially when using heavy weight coated stocks

Use standard sizes: Design your printed pieces to take maximum advantage of common sheet sizes. For example, think A4 or A3.

Use paper specifically designed for the equipment you’re using: For example, paper designed specifically to optimise the performance of digital printing equipment may significantly reduce waste due to jamming and offer a better surface for dry ink adhesion.

Reduce basis weight: Heavier basis weight sheets cost more per sheet than lighter ones. Lighter weight stocks will also reduce mailing costs.

Select the right paper for the job: Choosing the right paper is key. Consider factors such as image quality, brightness, equipment choice, and end use (is folding required?). Then select a paper that will ensure the best results.
