Using Duplex Bind
When Duplex Bind printing is selected in the printer driver or Duplex Bind in the Finishing Menu, either long edge or short
edge binding must be selected, which are the values for this setting. The purpose of Duplex Bind is to define the way
duplexed pages are bound, and how the printing on the back of the sheet (even-numbered pages) is oriented in relation to
the printing on the front (odd-numbered pages).
The two values for Duplex Bind are:
