2-Sided Copying

The 2-Sided mode enables you to make two-sided copies from one-sided or two-sided originals, or make one-sided copies from two-sided originals. Making two-sided copies enables you to cut print costs in half when copying in large quantities.

IMPORTANT
To use the 2 to 2-Sided and 2 to 1-Sided Copying modes, the optional Feeder (DADF-AB1) is required. Paper used to make two-sided copies must conform to the following specifications: Paper size: LTR, LTRR, LGL, 11" × 17", STMTR or EXEC Paper type: Plain, Recycled, 3-hole punch paper (Only LTR, LTRR, A4, or A4R is available.), Color Paper weight: 17 to 24 lb bond (64 to 90 g/m2)

NOTE
You can make 2 to 2-sided or 2 to 1-sided copies without the feeder if you place and turn the originals on the platen glass. Using the feeder, however, enables you to perform copying faster and easier using the 2 to 2-Sided or 2 to 1-Sided mode.

1 to 2-Sided

The 1 to 2-Sided mode enables you to make two-sided copies from one-sided originals.

IMPORTANT
The 1 to 2-Sided mode cannot be used with the 2-Page Separation mode. Make sure to place originals with a horizontal (landscape) orientation, such as LTRR, horizontally. If these originals are placed vertically, the back side of the original is copied upside down.

NOTE
If there is an odd number of originals, the back side of the last copy is left blank. (The machine’s counter does not count the blank page as one copy.) If the 1 to 2-Sided mode is used with the Different Size Originals mode, the copies of differently sized originals will be printed as one-sided copies on paper of their respective sizes. If you want to make two-sided copies with differently sized originals, you must select the paper size beforehand. (Manual Paper Selection) If the 1 to 2-Sided mode is used when the 2 on 1 mode in the Image Combination mode is set to ‘On’ for copying four-page originals, two pages of the original are printed on one side of the paper, and the other two pages are printed on the other side.
