1-sided Printing and 2-sided Printing

You can select whether to print on one side or both sides of each sheet of paper. If the machine you are using supports 2-sided printing, the default setting is 2-sided printing.

IMPORTANT

Precautions on 2-sided printing

Do not touch your document when making 2-sided printing until the process is complete. After printing on the front side is complete, the document is partially output, reserved, and fed into the machine again for printing on the back side.

Be sure to close the sub-output tray before making 2-sided printing.

Printing to the back side of printed document (Manual 2-sided printing)

Two-sided printing can be performed manually using a printed document. Place a printed document in the multi-purpose tray to print on the back side*.

To print on the back side of a printed document, smooth out the curling edges of the sheets and place them one by one in the multi-purpose tray.

*	This feature is supported only for sheets printed from this machine. You cannot make a print on the printed side again.
