MOVING MEDIA IN REVERSE DUPLEX DIRECTION ALONG MEDIA DUPLEX PATH

摘要

A method includes guiding the media in a forward simplex direction by a simplex media path of a media transport assembly of the printing apparatus to position a respective side of the media across from a toner applicator to receive toner thereon and a fuser to fuse the toner thereon. The method also includes guiding the media in a forward duplex direction to the simplex media path by the duplex media path of the media transport assembly so that another side of the media is positioned towards the toner applicator to receive the toner thereon. The method also includes selectively moving the media in a reverse duplex direction opposite from the forward duplex direction to direct the media along the duplex media path to an output area outside of the media transport assembly by the control module in response to a media flushing event.
