  3. Select the layout

    Select Normal-size (or Fit-to-Page, Scaled, or Page Layout) from the Page Layout list.

  4. Specify the side to be stapled

    The machine analyzes the Orientation and Page Layout settings, and automatically selects the best Staple Side. When you want to change the setting, select another value from the list.

  5. Set the margin width

    If necessary, click Specify Margin... and set the margin width, and then click OK.

  6. Complete the setup

    Click OK on the Page Setup tab.

    When you execute print, the document is first printed on one side of a sheet of paper. After one side is printed, reload the paper correctly according to the message.
    Then click OK to print the opposite side.

Important
  • When a media type other than Plain Paper is selected from Media Type, Duplex Printing appears grayed out and is unavailable.

  • When Borderless, Poster or Booklet is selected from the Page Layout list, Duplex Printing and Staple Side appear grayed out and are unavailable.

Note
  • If the back side of the paper becomes smudged during duplex printing, perform Bottom Plate Cleaning in the Maintenance tab.
