Switch Paper Feed Method

Specify this setting when you print a document on paper with logos. To print on paper with logos, you need to change how the paper loaded in the paper source is facing depending on whether you are performing 1- or 2-sided printing. However, if you change the setting to <Print Side Priority>, you can just load the paper face down for both 1- and 2-sided printing. For more information, see Loading Preprinted Paper.

Paper Sources

Select the paper source that you want to change the setting for.

<Speed Priority>

When using paper that has been preprinted with a logo, you need to change how it is facing when you perform 1-sided and 2-sided printing.

We recommend selecting <Speed Priority> if you do not need to consider which side to print on.

<Print Side Priority>

To print on a specific side of paper, you do not need to flip over paper in the paper source whether 1- or 2-sided printing is selected.

If <Print Side Priority> is set for a paper source that is loaded with paper you cannot use for 2-sided printing (Paper), <Speed Priority> is applied to the paper source instead. In this case, you need to load the paper in the same way as when <Speed Priority> is selected (Loading Preprinted Paper).

1-sided printing speed may be slower when <Print Side Priority> is selected.
