I can't set some printing options

The printer is only able to print on one side of the page at once.

In order to print on both sides you will need to print only 1 page. This is set on the left side window that comes up before you print. Select the option to print Page number 1.

Then once the page is printed, turn it typed side down heading first, back into the paper tray.

Now select to print Page number 2.

This process is called manual duplex printing, since the printer does not support automatic duplex printing.

Take care!

To automatically duplex, you need the optional duplexing mechanism.
If you don't have this, your only option is to print the odd pages first, put the papers back in the tray, then print the even pages.
When you put the pages back into the paper tray, make sure they are print side up.
Try with a 5 or 6 page document first to be sure you get the orientation right.

If you HAVE the optional duplexing unit (which sticks out the front just above the main paper tray) then post a reply here and I'll try to help you further.
99% of the people that own this unit do NOT have the optional duplexer!

Your manual can be found here.

Printing on both sides of paper You can print on both sides of a paper; duplex. Before printing, decide how you want your document oriented. You can only use this feature with Letter, Legal, A4, US Folio, or Oficio sized paper.


Do not print on both sides of the special media, such as labels, envelopes, or thick paper to print on both sides of paper. It may cause a paper jam or damage the machine.

1. To change the print settings from your software application, access Printing Preferences. (See Opening Printing Preferences.)
   
2. Click the Layout tab.
   
3. From the Double-sided Printing section, select the binding option you want.
   
   • Printer Default: If you select this option, this feature is determined by the setting you’ve made on the control panel of the machine.
     
   • None
     
   • Long Edge: This option is the conventional layout used in bookbinding.
     
     
   • Short Edge: This option is the conventional layout used in calendars.
     
     
   • Reverse Double-Sided Printing: Check this option to reverse the print order when duplex printing.
     
4. Click the Paper tab, select the Paper Options.
   
5. Click OK or Print until you exit the Print window.
   

If your machine does not have a duplex unit, you should complete the printing job manually. The machine prints every other page of the document first. After that , a message appears on your computer. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the printing job.

Good Luck!

There ia a duplex unit that you could buy and attach to the machine.
Alternatively when you select "Print"
Select the option to print pages in the range "odd pages
When the job is finished place the printed documents in the manual paper feed and select "Print" again and the option to print all the even pages.
You will also have to check a box to print pages in reverse order or vice versa depending on the order the first batch were printed.
A bit of trial and error might be required before you get the correct solution. Hope this helps??

when the print console opens up, there is an option on top like select printer. there is a "properties" to the right of it.
In that you can choose print double side pages.
This can be done if your printer is capable to print double sides by itself.

If not so then then what you can do is first print alternate pages like in order 1,3,5, then arrange the papers on printer as such that

Hi babzg

When you hit print and the print window pops up there should be an option for print last page first. make sure that is checked off.

This may also be in the printer properties for your machine.


Hope this helps!
