Manufacturer's Description
The Auto Duplexer is an optional accessory that allows the user to print on both sides of the page automatically, without having to turn the paper over manually. It can also be used to print in double-sided folded booklet format. Installation is fast and simple, fitting to the printer's rear panel in under 10 seconds. Although designed to be left permanently attached, the ease of installation means the user can add/remove it as required if they are short of desk space. Duplex printing can only be performed on the plain paper setting - loaded from either of the paper trays in the Stylus Photo RX685. Auto duplex printing is available in standalone mode (e.g. copying) and from the computer.

Customer Reviews

Snap it into place
I'd read some reviews about the duplex unit and thought it would be tricky to set up. I was wrong. I just snapped the unit onto the back of my PX700W (great printer), clicked on the 'Page Layout' tab of the Printer Properties window and selected Auto under '2-sided printing'. Double-sided printing. Done. If you have a PX700 or 800 you should get this.

Good things do come at reasonable prices
Just received this duplex unit.
Plugged it in and set print properties and it was working in 10 minutes.
Contrary to another review it does work wirelessly.

A Delightful Double!
The Epson Auto Duplex Unit is easy to fit, since it simply slides and clicks into place. It is also very easy to use, provided you read "Duplex Printing with the Auto Duplexer" in the "Doing More with your Printer" section of the html "User Guide" which is installed during set up. The only point to notice - which does get one brief mention in the User Guide - is that you can't do two-sided printing wirelessly. If you've already connected your printer wirelessly, you simply need to connect it to your computer using a usb cable, and the required direct connection will be automatically set up. All you need do thereafter is remember to connect the usb cable if you require two-sided printing, and select the appropriate option in the printer dialogue box - in my case the "Epson PX700W Series" rather than the default "Epson Stylus Photo PX700W(Network)". Despite this one proviso, the Printer and Duplex Unit, together, in my view, are a delightful double.
