PRINTER CONTROLLER
Duplex Printing
Duplex printing is available with all output bin options but not all paper sizes (refer
to the specifications section of the printer manual). If a job specifies duplex but the
paper size in the duplex unit is not usable, the job will be print as simplex.
Duplex printing is available in two binding methods: Short- and Long-edge binding.
In short-edge binding, when printing the second side of a page, the image may
require rotation. The co-processor in the printer controller rotates the image.
The co-processor corrects the image printing order for duplexing as follows.
• Larger than A4 lengthwise/LT lengthwise (example 8 pages)
2nd page – 1st page – 4th page – 3rd page – 6th page – 5th page – 8th page
– 7th page
• Up to A4 lengthwise/LT lengthwise (example 8 pages)
2nd page – 4th page – 1st page – 6th page – 3rd page – 8th page – 5th page
– 7th page
Stapling
Stapling is only available when the 3000-sheet finisher or 1000-sheet finisher is
installed.
The finishers have the following stapling positions.
1) Upper left, diagonal
2) Upper right, diagonal
3) Left, two staples
4) Top, two staples
5) Right, two staples
6) Upper left, horizontal
7) Upper right, horizontal
8) Upper left, vertical
9) Upper right, vertical
NOTE: With the 1,000-sheet finisher, only stapling positions 1) and 2) are
available.
Depending on the paper orientation, the image may have to be rotated. The co-
processor in the printer controller does this image rotation.
There is a limit for the number of sheets that each finisher can staple. If a job that
specifies stapling has more than this number of sheets, it will not be stapled.
