Unit in the printer driver (optional).”

premium inkjet paper, photo paper, brochure paper, or paper lighter

Jams might occur with these types of media.

To print on both sides of paper, make the selection from the
software or printer driver. (For Windows, see the printer driver
online help. For Macintosh, see the Mac Help on your computer.)

control panel.”
