About this Chapter
This chapter provides all of the information necessary to install, use, and maintain the duplexer.
NOTE: The printer automatically recognizes an option after the option is installed. The printer driver does
not. You must enable (activate) the option in the printer driver after the option is installed.
The steps you will follow vary according to both your operating system and your installed printer
driver. Here are the general steps you will follow.
Select the driver you want to work with.
Locate the printer properties section within the printer driver.
Use the pulldown window to select the option.
Activate the option.
About the Duplexer
The duplexer is a customer-installed optional device that enables automatic printing on both
sides of a sheet of paper. The duplexer is designed to be mounted inside the printer, just below
the exit transport in the paper path. The duplexer drives a single-sided print partially out of the
exit transport, then reverses the direction and pulls the printed page back into the printer to print
the second side. The printer can image two pages at a time. Therefore the duplex unit will pro-
cess two pages (sides 1 and 3). then re-feed these pages for sides 2 and 4.
