Printing on Preprinted Paper with a Logo
How to print on paper on which a logo is printed is described here.
Perform step 1 to step 3.
Computer screens or illustrations used in this section are for LBP674Cx, unless otherwise noted. Depending on the model and operation system you are using, what is described in this section may appear differently.
Step 1 Loading preprinted paper
Load paper with careful attention to the side of the paper on which you want to print. How the paper faces (down or up) differs when you print on a single side or both sides.
NOTE
If you use both one-sided printing and two-sided printing frequently
When you want to switch between one-sided printing and two-sided printing on preprinted paper with a logo, you need to change how the loaded paper faces. However, if you specify <Print Side Priority> for <Switch Paper Feed Method>, how the paper faces for one-sided printing is set the same as two-sided printing (with the logo side facing down).

About <Free>
If you frequently need to change the paper to be loaded, set to <Free>; this will reduce the number of steps required to change the setting each time.
