Double-Sided Printing
The following explains the types of double-sided printing and their
procedures.
In the explanation, the surface printed first is referred to as the “front
surface”, and the surface printed second as the “rear surface”.
Types of Double-Sided Printing
The following three types of double-sided printing are available:
- Printing on the back side of media from the take-up unit
(Rear 1)
- Printing on the back side of media from the feeder (Rear
2)
- After rewinding, printing on the back side of media from
the feeder (Rear 2)
-
When printing data at a high printing rate, use the optional
liner and sub scroller to prevent media from sticking.
-
When a liner is used in printing the rear surface from the
take-up unit (rear 1), one more subscroller is necessary.
Printing on Back Side from Winding unit
After printing on the face side of media, the media is cut and in-
serted again into the feeder through a space at the bottom of the
printer for printing on the back side. (About 2.5 m margin is re-
quired at the top edge of media.)
