IMPORTANT

Precautions when performing 2-sided printing

Do not touch the paper during 2-sided printing until it is completely output. The paper is first partially output after the front side is printed, and then it is fed again to be printed on the back side.

Be sure to close the output selection cover before performing 2-sided printing.

"Paper Loading and Output"

Printing on the back side of paper whose front side is already printed

This printer enables you to perform 2-sided printing by manually inserting the back side of the paper* whose front side was previously printed even if the paper cannot be used for 2-sided printing.

When printing on the back side of paper whose front side was previously printed, flatten out any curled paper and load one sheet of paper at a time in the multi-purpose tray.

*	This is only for paper that has been printed using this printer. Also, you cannot print again on the same side of the paper that was printed before.
*	If you are using A5 paper, the back side may not be printed correctly.
