    Manual 2-Sided Printing
    You can manually print on both sides of the paper when you are using paper types that are 
    either too small or too heavy for automatic 2-sided printing. The Phaser 8560N printer does 
    not have automatic 2-sided printing; however, manual 2-sided printing is available with this 
    printer.
    You can also manually print on the second side of paper that is pre-printed on side one. See 
    Printing Side Two on page 3-30 for instructions on loading pre-printed paper and selecting the 
    2nd Side option on the control panel.
    Note: Before printing the second side of your paper, always select 2nd Side as the paper type 
    on the control panel and in the printer driver. Selecting 
    2nd Side ensures good print quality for 
    manual 2-sided printing.

    Guidelines
    ■Remove all paper before loading transparencies in the tray.
    ■Handle transparencies by the edges using both hands. Fingerprints or creases can cause 
    poor print quality.
    ■Do not load more than 50 transparencies in Tray 1. Do not load more than 
    400 transparencies in Trays 2-4. Overloading the tray can cause the printer to jam.
    ■Do not use transparencies with stripes on the side.
    ■After loading transparencies, change the paper type at the control panel (Printer Setup/
    Paper Handling Setup).
