• The following two types of 2-sided printing methods are available.
2-Sided Printing Methods
A. Operations in 2-sided printing with a single sheet of paper resident in the system
Operation 1
• The first sheet of paper 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.
Operation 2
• The 1-sided print is transported to the Switchback Unit.
• Immediately before the 1-sided print is fed out by the
Exit Roller of the Switchback Unit, the direction of rota-
tion of the Exit Roller is reversed and the 1-sided print is
transported toward and into the Duplex Unit.
Operation 3
• The 1-sided print moves through the Duplex Unit and is
directly subject to the second print cycle without being
stopped.
