Printing on both sides of the paper (duplex printing)
Printing on both sides of the paper (duplex printing)
Printing on both sides of the paper reduces printing costs.
You can use the 250-sheet tray or the 550-sheet drawer to print a duplex job.
Note: The duplex unit only supports certain sizes and types of print media. Only A4, letter, legal and folio
size paper can be used for duplex printing. The printer does not support duplex printing on any other
type of print media.
Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead. Use the following table for help when loading letterhead in the
media sources for duplex printing.
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).
