Paper does not feed correctly when using the double-sided printing feature

If multiple pages feed when using the double-sided printing feature, remove the paper as instructed in Multiple pages feed. If the paper that was wrongly fed has not been creased or wrinkled, it may still be usable. Reload only the usable paper properly into the printer.

If a paper jam occurs while using the double-sided printing feature, remove the paper as instructed in Paper jams. If multiple print jobs have been sent to the printer when the paper jam occurs, check the page settings in your application and confirm that the paper is loaded properly to ensure that no pages are skipped and that the document is printed correctly.
