Sides Guide
This guide illustrates single-sided and double-sided printing options.
Choose the best option for your printing needs.
Single-sided Printing
Front
Back (Blank)
- Content is printed on one side of the paper only
- Ideal for flyers, posters, and single-page documents
- Typically faster and more cost-effective for small print runs
- Allows for full-bleed designs without show-through
Double-sided Printing
Front
Back
- Content is printed on both sides of the paper
- Perfect for booklets, brochures, and multi-page documents
- More eco-friendly, using less paper
- Two common types:
- 1. Long-edge binding: Pages flip like a book
- 2. Short-edge binding: Pages flip like a notepad
Choosing the Right Option
- Consider your content: Does it require printing on both sides?
- Think about paper thickness: Thinner paper may show through on double-sided prints
- Evaluate cost: Double-sided printing may save money on larger print runs
- Consider your audience: Professional documents often benefit from double-sided printing
- Check your printer capabilities: Ensure your printer supports double-sided printing if needed
Tips for Double-sided Printing
- Use heavier paper to minimise show-through
- Allow extra drying time between sides to prevent smudging
- Check printer settings to ensure correct page orientation
- Consider margin placement for binding or hole-punching
- Test print a few pages before committing to a large print run
