When you have completed the steps that appear in the dialog box, the second half of the print job prints
on the back side of the stack of media. The driver does not require the program to specifically support
odd- and even-page printing, because the driver coordinates this function.
Flip Pages Up
The Flip Pages Up check box, which is available only when Print on Both Sides is selected, is used
to specify the duplex-binding option. By default, the Flip Pages Up check box is not available. The
following table demonstrates the results of selecting this box, depending on the media orientation that
is selected on the Basics tab.

Landscape Long-edge binding Short-edge binding
When Print on Both Sides is selected, the document preview image changes to show a spiral binding
along either the left edge or the top edge of the page. In addition, a folded-over corner appears in the
lower-right portion of the preview image, indicating that printing occurs on the back side. An arrow on
the folded-over corner points in the direction that the pages would be flipped if they were bound together.
Short-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by flipping over like the pages of a note pad.
Long-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by turning like the pages of a book.
