Duplex Printing Methods The Duplex Unit uses a single-sheet batch and a multi-sheet batch mode when duplexing a print job. I Single-sheet batch printing - involving a single sheet of paper. The first side of the page is printed, then the second side is printed and the page is sent to the output tray. Single-sheet batch is used by the printer when a complex duplex job is received. For example, if the printer received a job that contains complicated graphics, the printer will switch to single-sheet batch mode so it can process the job. I Multi-sheet batch printing: 1. The printer prints on one side of the first sheet of paper. 2. The first sheet is returned to the Duplex Unit and held. 3. The printer prints on one side of a second sheet of paper. 4. The Duplex Unit returns the first sheet to the printer as the Exit Assembly returns the second sheet to the Duplex Unit. 5. The printer prints on the second side of the first sheet. 6. The printer transports the first sheet to the Output Tray. 7. A third sheet is fed and printed on one side. 8. The Duplex Unit returns the second sheet to the printer as the third sheet is returned to the Duplex Unit. 9. The printer prints on the second side of the second sheet. 10.The printer transports the duplexed printed second sheet to the output tray. This process repeats for additional prints.
