Your model supports automatic duplex printing using letter and A4 sizes ONLY. If you want to print two-sided documents on another type or size of paper, use the manual duplexing method.
1) With a document open, click "File" > "Print..."
2) Click "Properties" or "Preferences" or "Options" or "Setup" depending on your system
3) Click the "Advanced" tab
4) From the "2-Sided Printing" area, select the 2-Sided Printing option and then select either the "Sideflip" or "Topflip" option (sideflip is the setting most often used)
5) From the drop-down box, select Automatic.
6) You will see an "Extend dry time" option, which allows extra drying time between sides when you are printing on both sides of the paper. The Automatic 2-Sided Printing option affords enough time for the ink to dry on supported paper types in average air humidity. Under conditions of high humidity, or if the normal drying time does not allow the ink to dry completely, you should select Extend dry time.
7) Click <OK> to close any printer software dialogs that are open. This will take you back to the General Print screen.
8) Click "Print"
Note: To return to single-sided printing, return to the Advanced tab. From the 2-Sided Printing area, clear the 2-Sided Printing check box.
Systems may display these printing choices in different ways:
a) In step 3, there may be a "Features" Tab - this would be preferred over the "Advanced" tab as it is easier to setup and more intuitive to work with
b) In step 4, there may be different descriptions of the type of "flip" - choose "top" only if you want your final printout to be read somewhat like a coil memo pad - turning pages from the bottom over the top.
You may not have an option for choosing "side" as it may be selected by default for duplex printing - final printout is meant to be read by turning pages to the side.
If you are still experiencing problems, please comment and describe your difficulty.
