Paper Save Effectiveness of Duplex/Combine Function Duplexing and the combine functions reduce the amount of paper used. This means that less energy overall is used for paper production, which improves the environment. 1. Duplex: Reduce paper volume in half! 2. Combine mode: Reduce paper volume in half! 3. Duplex + Combine: Using both features toge[...]

To check the paper consumption, look at the total counter and the duplex counter. The total counter counts all pages printed. • For one duplex page, the total counter goes up by 2. • For a duplex job of a three-page original, the total counter goes up by 3. The duplex counter counts pages that have images on both sides. • For one duplex page,[...]
