Duplex Print
When you have multiple pages to print, you can
use the duplex feature of the computer to print
on either side of paper to save paper
consumption.
For more information, see “Duplex Printing” on
page 140.
Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI)
Multiple Up Print
With the Multiple Up print feature of the
printer, you can print multiple pages on a single
sheet of paper to save paper consumption.
For more information, see the print driver's
help.
Wireless Print (AL-MX200DWF only)
Print media loaded in the PSI is given
precedence over the media in the paper tray.
Using the PSI, you can print on print media of
another type or size preferentially over the
regular media in the paper tray.
For more information, see “Loading Print
Media in the Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI)” on
page 132.
With the wireless LAN feature of the printer,

Preface 15
AL-MX200 Series User’s Guide
Scan to SMB/FTP (Network)
You can transfer scanned data to a computer or
a server via SMB or FTP without service
software. Although prior registration of the
destination FTP server or the computer on the
Address Book is required, it helps save your
time.
For more information, see “Using a Scanner on
the Network” on page 186.
Scan from Document Glass
Scan to USB Storage Device
You do not need a computer to connect your
USB storage device to save scanned data. Insert
your USB storage device into the front USB port
on the printer, and save scanned data directly to
your USB storage device.
For more information, see “Scanning to a USB
Storage Device” on page 210.
Scan from ADF
You can scan pages of a book or a brochure from
the document glass. When you scan documents
using the document glass, place them face down.
For more information, see “Making Copies
From the Document Glass” on page 162.
You can scan pieces of unbound paper using the
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). When you
scan documents using the ADF, load them face
up.
For more information, see “Making Copies
