Printing on Both Sides of the Paper
Phaser® 8500/8550 Color Printer
3-26
Manual 2-Sided Printing
You can manually print on both sides of the paper when you are using paper types that are
either too small or too heavy for automatic 2-sided printing. The Phaser 8500N printer does
not have automatic 2-sided printing. Manual 2-sided printing is available with this printer.
You can also manually print on the second side of paper that is pre-printed on side one. See
Printing Side Two on page 3-27 for instructions on loading pre-printed paper and selecting the
2nd Side option on the control panel.
Note: Before printing the second side of your paper, always select 2nd Side as the paper
type on the control panel and in the printer driver. Selecting 2nd Side ensures good print
quality for manual 2-sided printing.
