- The printer prints out paper and it goes on a belt, but the printout is on the other side! Now we need to engineer how to reverse a page. Oh, screw it! We are hackers, after all! Just print the same thing on both sides.
- mlyle 6y agoIs it on both sides, or is it just on the "back"? I thought using the duplexer was a clever hack. It heightens the drama, too.
- mr_ndrsn 6y agoJust the back, you are correct!

- mr_ndrsn 6y agoYes, that's a simple way to handle it! As it is, I just make sure it's a 2-pager, and have the first page be blank. The thought there was to reduce toner usage, but printing the same thing reduces issues due to wind flipping the sheets over. +1
