You can select whether to print on one side or both sides of each sheet of paper.
The default setting for [Print Style] is [2-sided printing].

Paper Type	Paper Size

Before performing 2-sided printing, see "Attention (1-sided Printing and 2-sided Printing)."

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.

Printing on the back side of paper that was previously printed (performing 2-sided printing manually)

The printer can manually print the back side * of paper that has been printed once.

When printing the back side of paper that has been printed once, first stretch out the edges and flatten out curls, load them one sheet at a time in the multi-purpose tray, and then perform the following operation with the printer driver.

1.	Display the [Paper Source] tab.
2.	Set [Paper Source] to [Multi-purpose Tray].
3.	Select the [Print on the Other Side] check box.

*	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.
