Selecting the Print Side (MF4890dw/MF4880dw Only)
You can specify whether to match the sides to be printed for 2-sided printing and 1-sided printing.
Depending on the setting for this item, the side to be printed changes. When using previously printed paper, read "
Paper Loading Orientation" thoroughly to load the paper in the proper orientation.
IMPORTANT

Paper Size and Paper Type:
If you select unsupported paper size or paper type for 2-sided printing, the settings applied in this section will be invalid.
|
When <Print Speed Priority> is selected (the default setting):
All pages (odd and even) are printed on the back side for 1-sided printing while the odd pages are printed on the first side for 2-sided printing, as shown below.
|
|
Make sure to place the stack correctly to use preprinted paper, as the side to be placed face up varies between 1-sided and 2-sided printing.

Select this setting when
using paper types other than preprinted paper

When <Print Side Priority> is selected:
All pages are printed on the first side for 1-sided printing so the odd pages are always printed on the first side for both 1-sided and 2-sided printing, as shown below.

The side to be placed face up is the same between 1-sided and 2-sided printing, even when using preprinted paper.
