How to print double-sided with an Evolis Primacy 2 Duplex

When printing with my Evolis Primacy 2 Duplex, I get two cards instead of one card printed double-sided. What can I do?

The Evolis Primacy 2 Duplex is a superb ID card printer, but by default, it is configured by the manufacturer as Simplex (single-sided). Therefore, you need to open and change the Evolis Primacy 2 settings.

Steps to Enable the Evolis Primacy 2 dual side printing feature.

• Open the Evolis Premium Suite 2 and click on the Printer settings button below.

You are done! You can close the Evolis Premium Suite 2.

We recommend closing and reopening your card printer software for the change to take effect.
