CD-ROM or print the Paper Tips page from the printer’s front panel.
Automatic 2-sided printing
To have the printer do automatic 2-sided printing (duplexing):
■ The printer must be either a Phaser 6200 DP or Phaser 6200 DX model.
■ The paper must be loaded in a tray. The printer will NOT do automatic 2-sided printing on paper
loaded in the Multi-Purpose Tray.
■ Any supported paper size that is supported in the tray can be duplexed. Any supported paper type
(Plain Paper, Heavy Plain Paper, Letterhead, or Special) that can be loaded in the tray can be
duplexed.
■ The paper must have a weight of 75-105 g/m
2
(20 - 28 lb. bond).
Caution
DO NOT use any specialty media (such as glossy coated paper), envelopes, or labels for
2-sided printing. Any damage caused by duplexing specialty media may not be covered
under your printer warranty.
For best results with automatic 2-sided printing, do not use heavy toner coverage on the even-numbered
pages of your print job.
When you print any job, you can use the printer driver to select the orientation of the images on the
page: Portrait or Landscape. When you print 2-sided jobs, you also select the binding preference,
which determines how the pages turn; refer to the table on page 12 for the wording used in the printer
drivers for binding preference.

To do automatic 2-sided printing:
1. Insert a stack of paper into the tray. For more information, refer to the Trays section of the
Trays and Paper Guide on the Interactive Documentation CD-ROM. Place the side to be
printed with the odd-numbered pages facedown with the top of the page at the back of the tray. If
using paper with pre-punched holes, place the holes toward the right side of the tray.
2. In the printer driver:
■ Select the tray containing the paper.
■ Select the orientation.
■ Select 2-sided printing, as described in the following table.
3. Send the job to the printer.

Manual 2-sided printing
If the printer doesn’t have a duplex unit, you can still have the printer print on both sides of the paper.
However, you must have the printer print all of the odd-numbered pages first, reinsert the printed pages
in the tray, then have the printer print the even-numbered pages.
You can use Trays 1-3 or the Multi-Purpose Tray for manual 2-sided printing.
Paper specifics
■ When using the Multi-Purpose Tray, the paper must have a weight of 75 - 216 g/m
2
(20 - 58 lb.
bond).
■ When using the trays, the paper must have a weight of 75 - 105 g/m
2
(20 - 28 lb. bond).
■ For the best opacity and feed reliability, use Plain Paper that is 90 g/m
2
(24 lb. bond) paper.
■ 2-sided printing on specialty paper can shorten the life of printer components.
■ For best results, do not use heavy toner coverage on side 1 of a manual 2-sided print. Increase the
top margin on side 1 to at least 12 mm (0.48 in.).
■ Print quality may be degraded on the second side of manual 2-sided prints.
