Duplex Printing With the Auto Duplexer
You can perform automatic duplex printing with the Auto Duplexer by following these steps.
Note:|
You can perform automatic duplex printing with plain paper, Epson Premium Ink Jet Plain Paper, Epson Bright White Ink Jet Paper, and Epson Double-Sided Matte Paper in A4, Letter, and B5 sizes.
If the ink runs low during automatic duplex printing, the printer stops printing and the ink needs to be replaced. When ink replacement is complete, the printer starts printing again, but there may be some missing parts in your print out. If this happens, print the missing parts again.
