You can print on both sides of the paper from the
Multipurpose Tray (Tray 1). The paper must go through the
printer twice. You can either print to the Main Output Tray or
the Face-up Output Tray (for heavier stock).
Follow these steps to set up manual duplexing:
1.
From the Properties window choose the Paper tab and
set up your basic print parameters, see page 42. Choose
Tray 1
for your source.
2.
Then choose the Job Finishing tab
(A)
.
3.
In the Manual Duplex Printing area select Long or Short
edge. Choose Flip on Long Edge if you want the binding
orientation along the left edge of the paper as in a
magazine
(B)
. Choose Flip on Short Edge if you want the
binding orientation along the top edge of the paper as in
a calendar
(C)
.
4.
Select the Print Instruction Sheet box.
5.
Click on the OK button.

Start printing. The printer automatically prints only the
odd-numbered pages.

Manual duplexing can cause the printer
to get dirty more quickly and reduce print quality.
