Selecting the Print Side (MF8380Cdw Only)
Specify whether to print only on the front side of paper for 1-sided printing so that the odd pages are always printed on the front side for both 1-sided and 2-sided printing.
The print side for 1-sided printing varies depending on the setting specified. To use preprinted paper, read "Paper Loading Orientation" carefully to place the paper stack in the correct orientation.
Important
Paper Size and Paper Type
If you select unsupported paper size or paper type for 2-sided printing, the settings applied in this section will be invalid.
When <Print Speed Priority> is selected (the default setting)
All pages (odd and even) are printed on the back side for 1-sided printing while the odd pages are printed on the first side for 2-sided printing, as shown below.
Make sure to place the stack correctly to use preprinted paper, as the side to be placed face up varies between 1-sided and 2-sided printing.
