The default setting is 2-sided in the USA and some other countries.

The print speed may change depending on the type of document you print.

The print speed may be slower when the machine is connected by wireless LAN.

Printing from Ready mode and standard tray.

Length of time from when the machine is started until paper output is complete (except when the machine is turned on or when an error is fixed).

May vary when calibration or registration is in progress.

This applies when printing on A4- or Letter-size paper from the standard tray. However, the First Print Time could be longer depending on the paper size and the amount of print data.
