You can perform duplex printing with the printer, using one of the following 
procedures.  

• 

For plain paper, whether fed from a paper tray or the multi-purpose tray, duplex 
printing is carried out automatically if you set this in the printer driver upon 
executing the print command. 

• 

For specialty paper such as cards or cardboard, you can print on the back 
surface of the paper from the multi-purpose tray as long as the front surface of 
the paper was printed using this printer. 

See 

For details about the types of paper suitable for duplex printing, refer to 4.1.1 
“Suitable Paper Types”.  

✏ 

Note 

When performing duplex printing frequently in Windows, we recommend that you 
register the necessary settings in the User Settings tab. Registering the settings 
saves you time, because you do not need to configure the driver each time you 
print. For details about the User Settings tab, refer to Help. 

Types of Duplex Printing 

There are two types of duplex printing: “long binding” and “short binding”. The 
results of printing with the two types are shown below:
