Duplexing

Select paper with high opacity for duplex (2-sided) printing. Opacity refers to
how effectively paper blocks out what is written on the opposite side of the
page. If the paper has low opacity (high translucency), then the printed data
from one side of the page will show through to the other side. For best results,
print a small quantity to make sure the opacity is acceptable.

How do I autoduplex?

Your printer is configured with 256 MB of RAM. Duplex (2-sided) printing can
be done automatically with enough memory installed. For example, a Fine
print quality, 1200 dpi duplex legal-size page would require 288 MB of
SDRAM. Additional memory can be added up to 512 MB. Very high coverage
pages may revert to 600 dpi when duplex printing if enough memory is not
installed. With letter media, two sheets are in the media path; with legal, only
one is. Therefore, it requires more memory to print the two sheets of letter
media.
Duplexing envelopes, glossy stock heavier than 28 lb bond (105 g/m
postcards, thick stock heavier than 28 lb bond (105 g/m
transparencies is not supported.
