    Double Sided printing

    hello,

    I have an Epson D88 inkjet printer, and I need to print out a pretty long document. My question is, how could I print on both sides of each piece of A4 paper? Would it cause any damage to just feed the paper through again to print on the other side?

    Thanks!

    Shouldn't cause any damage feeding the paper through again... as it is still just paper

    I do it all the time with large documents no problem. My printer has a setting for double sided printing, where it prints every other page first, then prompts you to re-insert the paper. Then you click the continue button and it continues printin the other pages it missed out on the reverse side of each page so that in the end everything is in the correct order, very clever

    I do it all the time on my printer, when printing select odd pages, then once printed stick them back in the tray and resend the print job with even pages setting.

    You have to be careful which way up thepages go back into the tray though. I spend a good minute everytime scratching my head and rotating the pages.

    Also don't forget to give it time to dry before you do feed it back in...

    You don't want to paint the rollers/smudge your work..
    Woohoo now Assistant Manager!

    Alternatively, print the document at work where they're far more likely to have a printer with a duplex module (that's double sided printing) and save yourself time and hassle
