Print on both sides (duplexing)
You can print on both sides of a sheet of media automatically by using the automatic
two-sided printing accessory (duplexer).
NOTE: Two-sided printing requires an automatic two-sided printing accessory
(duplexer) to be installed on the printer.
TIP: You can perform manual duplexing by first printing only the odd pages,
flipping the pages over, and then printing only the even pages.
