Printing on 2-Sides

You can use either of the following methods to print on both sides of the paper.

  • Automatic 2-sided printing

  • Manual 2-sided printing

    When the printer has finished printing the first side, flip the paper over to print on the other side.

Note:
  • This feature is not available for borderless printing.

  • If you do not use paper that is suitable for 2-sided printing, the print quality may decline and paper jams may occur.

  • Depending on the paper and the data, ink may bleed through to the other side of the paper.

  • You cannot perform manual 2-sided printing unless EPSON Status Monitor 3 is enabled. If EPSON Status Monitor 3 is disabled, access the printer driver window, click Extended Settings on the Maintenance tab, and then select Enable EPSON Status Monitor 3.

  • However, it may not be available when the printer is accessed over a network or is used as a shared printer.

  1. On the printer driver's Main tab, select the method of 2-Sided Printing.

  2. Click Settings, make the appropriate settings, and then click OK.

    • Printing may be slow depending on the combination of options selected for Print Density in the Select Document Type window and for Quality on the Main tab.
