2-sided Printing
You can perform 2-sided printing with the standard equipment of this printer. Plain
paper, heavy paper (28.0 lb Bond to 44.4 lb Cover (106 to 120 g/m
2
)), and coated
paper (27.9 lb Bond to 44.4 lb Cover (105 to 120 g/m
2
)) at sizes of A4, Legal, Letter,
and Foolscap can be used for automatic 2-sided printing.
IMPORTANT
•
You cannot perform automatic 2-sided printing on heavy paper (44.5 to 81.4 lb Cover
(121 to 220 g/m
2
)), transparencies, labels, coated paper (44.5 to 59.2 lb Cover (121 to
160 g/m
2
)), and envelopes.
•
When 2-sided printing is specified, and a job with odd number of pages is printed, the
printing surface of the last page are as follows according to the setting for ALT.METHOD
(See p. 6-34) or the paper source.
- When printing from the paper cassette
If ALT.METHOD is set to ON, the printer prints on the upper side of the loaded paper.
If ALT.METHOD is set to OFF, the printer prints on the underside of the loaded paper.
- When printing from the multi-purpose tray
If ALT.METHOD is set to ON, the printer prints on the underside of the loaded paper.
If ALT.METHOD is set to OFF, the printer prints on the upper side of the loaded paper.
•
Set ALT.METHOD to OFF when you want to match the setting of the orientation or
printing side for the last page with those for its previous page, such as when you want to
print previously printed paper etc. whose printing orientation or printing side is fixed.
•
During automatic 2-sided printing, do not touch the paper until it is output to the output
tray completely. In automatic 2-sided printing, the paper is partially output once after
printed on its surface and is fed again to be printed on its reverse side.
•
When performing manual 2-sided printing, flatten curls of the paper, and then load one
sheet at a time in the multi-purpose tray.
NOTE
Depending on the capacity of the RAM in the printer, the print quality may deteriorate, or
the printer may not be able to print, displaying <39 SPL MEM.FULL> when performing
automatic 2-sided printing on documents that make heavy use of lines or contain
complicated diagrams, charts, or graphs. In this case, you need to print again with
GRADATION LEVEL (See p. 6-35) set to HIGH 1 or install an optional expansion RAM
module (See p. 1-14).
