This printer feeds paper for duplex printing as indicated in the following
illustration. This printer feeds paper for duplex printing as indicated in the
following illustration. As shown, when making 2-sided [duplex] copies,
each sheet of paper is temporarily ejected onto the face-down tray (5), from
where it is then refed back (6) into the printer for printing on the reverse

Do not touch the paper as it is being transported through this process,
as doing so can be the cause of paper jams as well as malfunction of the
printer itself.
The duplex printing mode which lets you automatically print onto both
sides of the paper comes standard with this printer. If you do Not want to
print on both sides of the paper, select OFF (duplex printing disabled) as
the setting for this mode.
The default setting for the duplex printing mode is OFF.

Binding Setups
The term binding refers to the manner in which printed pages of paper are
joined together (by gluing, stitching, etc.) in book form. The two possible
types of binding are long-edge binding, in which pages are joined together
along their long edge; and short-edge binding, in which they are joined
together along their short edge. In selecting a binding type, you must also
consider the orientation of the printed page. You can use long-edge or
short-edge binding with either landscape or portrait printing.
Depending on the binding type and print orientation, the duplexer provides
four types of binding setups. These are: (1) portrait, long-edge, (2) portrait,
short edge, (3) landscape, long-edge, and (4) landscape, short-edge. The
figure below shows these binding setups.
