Printing on both sides of the paper (duplexing)
Printing on both sides of the paper (duplexing) automatically
The automatic duplex unit, available only on selected printer models, supports letter- and A4-size paper. If you
purchased a model without automatic duplex, or if you need to print duplex using other paper sizes, then see the
instructions for printing on both sides of the paper (duplexing) manually.
