Printing Printing a document 1 1 When the machine receives data from your computer, it begins printing by picking up paper from the paper tray. The paper tray can feed many types of paper and envelopes. (See the User’s Guide for information about the Paper Tray and Recommended paper.) a From your application, choose the Print command.
Printing Duplex printing 1 1 The supplied printer driver supports duplex printing. Guidelines for printing on both sides of the paper 1 If the paper is thin, it may wrinkle. If paper is curled, turn over the stack, straighten it and then put it back in the paper tray or the MP tray. If the paper is not feeding properly, it may be curled. Remove the paper, straighten it and turn over the stack.
Printing Manual duplex printing 1 The machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper first. Then, the Windows® driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well, or you may get a paper jam. Very thin or thick paper is not recommended.
Printing Simultaneous scanning, printing and faxing 1 1 Your machine can print from your computer while sending or receiving a fax in memory, or while scanning a document into the computer.
