5. Junction mylar 3
For duplex printing, the second page (rear side) is printed first.
To print on the second side, the duplex inverter unit (on the side of the machine)
inverts the paper from the fusing unit and feeds it to the duplex feed unit (inside the machine).
The duplex feed unit feeds the inverted paper back to the paper feed section.
When both sides have been printed, the duplex inverter unit feeds the paper out
to the finisher.
If the mailbox or standard exit tray (on top of the machine) was selected to
receive the duplex copies, the print will not enter the duple x unit after the second side has been printed. The junction gate inside the printer directs it upwards to the selected tray.
Duplex copies are not fed out to the external tray (on the left of the machine).

2.2 DUPLEX OPERATION

2.2.1 UP TO A4/LT(8
There are three sheets of paper in the paper feed path at the same time, using the interleave method.
Example: 8 pages. The number [A] in the illustration shows the order of pages. The number [B] in the illustration shows the order of shee ts of paper (if shaded, this indicates the second side).

2.2.2 LARGER THAN A4/LT(8
There is only one sheet of paper in the paper feed path at one time. Example: 8 pages. The numbe r [A] in the illustration shows the order of pages. The
number [B] in the illustration shows the order of shee ts of paper (if shaded, this indicates the second side).

2.3.2 FEED TO EXTERNAL EXIT TRAY (NON-DUPLEX MODE)
[B]
[A]
G571D106.WMF
This shows how the machine feeds paper through the duplex unit to the external tray [A], when duplex mode has not been selected.
NOTE: The paper cannot be fed out to the external tray if duplex printing is
selected.
The junction gate [B] directs the paper from the fusing unit out to the external tray if thick paper or OHP mode is selected, or if the external tray is selected as the output tray with the printer driver.

[C]
G571D107.WMF G571D111.WMF
This shows how the machine feeds paper back into the machine after side 1 has been printed.
[B]
The junction gate [A] diverts the paper from the fusing unit to the lower part of the inverter unit. After the duplex inverter sensor [B] has been activated, the machine waits until the trailing edge has passed junction mylar 3 [B]. Then, the paper is switched back and junction mylar 3 directs the paper back into the machine for the second side.
The next page shows how the paper is fed out to the finisher after both sides have been printed.
