Overview
Features
The OP-TU80X Turning Unit is a duplex printing option for use with the DP-DS80D Digital Photo
Printer. Using this unit in conjunction with the DP-DS80D allows printing on both sides of print sheets.
Duplex printing can be performed on cut sheets loaded into the OP-TU80X. Simplex printing can be
performed on paper rolls loaded into the DP-DS80D. The ink ribbon loaded into the DP-DS80D is used
for both processes.
Notes
This unit is intended for use with the DP-DS80D. Always use the unit in conjunction with the
DP-DS80D. The unit cannot be connected and used with the DS80. For details on printer
operations, refer to the user’s manual supplied with the printer.
