Copying on both sides of a single sheet of paper is called duplex copying.

Your Brother machine does not have a built-in duplex copying feature. However, you can manually make duplex copies by copying on one side of a sheet of paper, putting the printed page back into the machine's paper tray, then copying on the other side.

Follow the steps below to duplex copy using the flat scanner glass:

1. Lift the document cover.
   
   
2. Place the first page you want to copy face down on the flat scanner glass.
   
   Use the document guide lines in the upper-left corner of the flat scanner glass to help you position your document.
   
   
3. Close the document cover.
   
   If you are scanning a book or thick document, do not slam or press on the document cover.
   
   
4. Press Copy. (For Touchscreen models)
   
   
5. Do one of the following:
   
   
   • Press Black (Mono) Start to make a black and white copy.
     
     
   • Press Color (Colour) Start to make a color copy.
   
   The machine will print the first side of your copy.
   
   
6. Remove the printed page from the Brother machine.
   
   
7. Do one of the following:
   
   
   • If you only printed text, go to STEP 8.
     
     
   • If you printed an image, follow the steps below:
     
     
     1. Wait 5 minutes to allow the ink to dry on the printed page.
        
        
     2. Go to STEP 8.
   
   
8. Empty the paper tray completely.
   
   Do not add the printed pages to the top of a stack of unprinted paper.
   
   
9. Put the printed pages back into the paper tray, top page first with the printed sides face up, blank side down.
   
   Make sure the pages are completely flat before you put them back in the paper tray.

   • If you are printing in Landscape orientation, insert the paper so that the top edges of the images are at the right-hand side of the tray.
