Guidelines for Printing Both Sides of Paper
Caution Do not print on both sides of labels, transparencies, envelopes,
vellum, or paper heavier than 28 lb (105 g/m
2
). Damage to the
printer and paper jamming might result.
WARNING! To avoid personal injury and damage to the printer, do not lift the
printer with the duplexer installed. Before relocating the printer,
separate the duplexer and optional trays from the printer.
•
You might need to configure the printer driver to recognize the
duplexer. (See the printer software help for details.)
•
To print on both sides of paper, make the selection from the
software or printer driver. (See the printer software help.)
•
If the printer driver does not have this option, change the Duplex
setting from the Paper Handling Menu in the printer’s control panel
to
DUPLEX=ON . Also in the Paper Handling Menu, set Binding to
long edge or short edge. (For more information, see page 37.)
•
Be sure that Tray 2 is in place with its cover down. (The paper
passes over this cover when duplexing.)
•
Close the rear output bin to use the duplexer (page 24). Opening
the rear output bin disables the duplexer.
