Options for binding 2-sided printing jobs
Before printing a 2-sided document, use the printer driver to choose the edge on which you
will bind your finished document. Long-edge or book binding is the conventional layout used
in book binding. Short-edge or tablet binding is the typical calendar binding.
Note The default binding setting is to bind on the long edge when the page is set up for portrait
orientation. To change to short-edge binding, click the Flip Pages Up check box.
Manual 2-sided printing
Note The HP Color LaserJet 3500 series printer does not have automatic 2-sided (duplex)
printing.
If you want to print on two sides (duplex) on paper other than the supported sizes or weights
(for example, paper heavier than 105 g/m
2 (28 lb) or very thin paper), or if your printer does
not support automatic 2-sided printing, you will have to go to the printer and reinsert the
paper manually after the first side has printed. You will also have to reinsert the paper
manually if you select either Correct Order for Rear Bin or Correct Order for Straight
Paper Path in the printer driver. Follow the instructions in the printer driver.
If you are using card stock or heavy paper, select Correct Order for Rear Bin in the printer
driver to avoid jams. Open the lower rear door (rear output bin).
Note Damaged or previously used paper can cause paper jams and should not be used.
