Guidelines for printing on both sides of a page

Always use media that conforms to the device specifications. For more
information, see

Understand specifications for supported media

.

Specify duplex options in your application or in the printer driver.

Do not print on both sides of transparencies, envelopes, photo paper, glossy
media, or paper lighter than 18 lb bond (75 g/m

2

). Jams might occur with these

media types.

Several kinds of media require a specific orientation when you print on both sides
of a page, such as letterhead, preprinted paper, and paper with watermarks and
prepunched holes. When you print from a computer running Windows, the device
prints the first side of the media first. When you print from a computer using the
Mac OS, the device prints the second side first. Load the media with the front side
facing down.
