2-sided printing method
The following two types of 2-sided printing methods are available.
Automatic 2-sided printing is not effective when the FD length is less than 276 mm.
4.4.1
Operations in 2-sided printing with a single sheet of media resident in the
system
2-sided printing
method
2-sided printing with a single sheet of media resident in the
system
2-sided printing with two sheets of media resident in the
system (When the FD length is no less than 276 mm, no more
than 297 mm).
2
Operation 1
The first sheet of media is taken up and fed in from the
main unit drawer and the main unit starts the first print
cycle to produce the print image of the second page of the
original.
Exit Roller
Operation 2
Immediately before the 1-sided print leaves the media exit
roller, the direction of rotation of the media exit roller is
reversed and the 1-sided print is transported toward and
into the duplex option.
2
Operation 3
The media conveyed through the duplex option is tempo-
rarily stopped at the duplex take-up position.
Any skew in the media is corrected at the registration roller
before the media is taken up and fed by the duplex option.
