To use this function, the duplexer must be installed on the print-
er.
Using the optional duplexer, you can automatically print on
both sides of the paper. The duplexer is attached to the rear
of the printer. The default setting of the duplex printing is
None (duplex printing disabled).
Binding Setups
The term binding refers to the manner in which printed pag-
es of paper are joined together (by gluing, stitching, etc.) in
book form. The two possible types of binding are long-edge
binding, in which pages are joined together along their long
edge; and short-edge binding, in which they are joined to-
gether along their short edge. In selecting a binding type,
you must also consider the orientation of the printed page.
You can use long-edge or short-edge binding with either
landscape or portrait printing.
Depending on the binding type and print orientation, the du-
plexer provides four types of binding setups. These are: (1)
portrait, long-edge, (2) portrait, short edge, (3) landscape,
long-edge, and (4) landscape, short-edge. The figure below
shows these binding setups.
