Installing Options Duplex Option Changing Duplex Settings You can select duplex functions from the operator panel or from your software application if it supports duplex printing. If the software setting differs from the operator panel setting, the software setting overrides the panel setting. For example, if you select duplex printing from the operator panel, but the software specifies single-sided printing, the printer prints single-sided pages. When the Duplex Option is installed, the PAPER MENU includes the menu items Duplex and Duplex Bind. You can print duplex pages from any paper source except the envelope feeder. The following table lists settings for the duplex option. A brief description of each menu item follows. Menu Item Duplex Duplex Bind Values On, Off Long Edge, Short Edge Default Setting Off (Single-sided printing) Long Edge Duplex Set the Duplex menu item On to print on both sides of the paper. Set Duplex Off to print on one side only. Duplex Bind Duplex binding refers to the way pages are attached to form a book. Selecting the type of duplex binding determines how the printing on the back (even-numbered) pages of a print job is oriented in relation to the printing on the front (odd-numbered) pages. 278 Duplex Option
