Choosing double-sided printing

When you print a document, select the printer called ePrint-OIT (2-sided) from the drop-down list of printers.

Printing double-sided by default

  1. Once you have completed the ePrint installation, open your Printers and Faxes window by going to Start > Printers and Faxes. You will have three new printers in your list of printers – ePrint-OIT, ePrint-OIT (2-sided) and ePrint-color (Fee).
  2. Right-click on ePrint-OIT (2-sided) and select Set as Default Printer.

Now every time you print, your document will be double-sided unless you choose a different printer from the dropdown list when you print.
