Table Of Contents
To enable Duplex or Mixplex printing:
1. On the Resources pane, expand the Print context, right-click the print section and click
Sheet configuration.
2. Check Duplex to enable content to be printed on the back of each sheet.
3. When Duplex printing is enabled, further options become available.
l Check Omit empty back side for Last or Single sheet to reset a page to Simplex
if it has an empty back side. This changes the Duplex job into a Mixplex job.
Thus changing a Duplex job into a Mixplex job may reduce volume printing costs
as omitted back sides aren't included in the number of printed pages. On the other
hand, depending on the printer type it may reduce the print speed as well.
See also: "The consequences of empty back sides for printing and page
numbering" on the next page.
Note
Use a print format that supports Duplex/Simplex switching to get a proper
Mixplex job. PDF is not suitable as it has no device control.
Print sections always start on a front page. To avoid empty pages between
sections, consider combining them into one section, and use page breaks to
push content to the next page (see "Page breaks" on page496).
l Check Tumble to duplex pages as in a calendar.
l Check Facing pages to have the side margins switched alternately, so that after
printing and binding the pages, they look like in a magazine or book. See "Pages"
on the next page to find out how to set a left and right margin on a page.
Note
Master Pages, Media and Duplex printing options can also be set in a Control Script (see
"Control Scripts" on page903 and "Control Script API" on page1385). This is especially
useful when you need identical sections with different settings.
