For details, see Performing Manual 2-sided Printing from Tray 1 on page 82. However, you can use the manual feed slot to print 2-sided pages one sheet at a time using the PostScript driver. For details, see Performing Manual 2-sided Printing from the Manual Feed Slot on page 83. Automatic 2-Sided Printing Guidelines Before printing a 2-sided document, verify that the paper is a supported size for the tray. For a list of supported sizes, see Supported Paper on page 48. Do not use the following media for automatic 2-sided printing: • Transparencies • Envelopes • Labels • Any die-cut specialty media, such as business cards • Cardstock • Glossy cardstock Binding Edge Options When you use the print driver to select 2-sided printing, you also select the binding edge. The binding edge determines how the pages turn. The actual outcome depends on the orientation (portrait or landscape) of images on the page, as shown in the following illustrations.
