Printing on both sides (duplexing)
You can print on both sides of a sheet of paper automatically using the auto-duplex unit. This
is called automatic duplexing. To print on both sides of a page, you must specify duplex
options in your application or in the printer driver.
Guidelines for printing on both sides of a page
When printing on both sides of the page using the optional auto-duplex unit, use the following
guidelines:
z The auto-duplex unit supports the following paper sizes: letter, legal, executive, A4, and
ISO B5. It does not support smaller sizes or custom sizes.
Minimum width: 3 inches (100 mm)
Maximum width: 8.5 inches (216 mm)
Minimum length: 5 inches (148 mm)
Maximum length 11.7 inches (292 mm)
z To print on both sides of paper, make the selection from the application or printer driver.
See
“Performing automatic duplexing” .
z The minimum top margin should be at least 0.5 inch (12 mm).
z Do not print on both sides of transparencies, banner media, envelopes, plain premium
inkjet paper, photo paper, brochure paper, glossy media, or paper lighter than 16 lb bond
(60 g/m
2
) or heavier than 24 lb bond (90 g/m
2
). Jams might occur with these types of
media.
z Several kinds of paper require a specific orientation when you print on both sides of a
page, such as letterhead, preprinted paper, and paper with watermarks and prepunched
holes. The auto-duplex unit prints the second side of paper first. For Tray 1 and Tray 2,
load the paper with the front side facing down.
