ES6405 Rear View
This view shows the connection panel, the rear output stacker and
the location of the optional duplex (two-sided printing) unit.
* The Network Interface may have a protective “plug” which must be
removed before connection can be made.
When the rear paper stacker is folded down paper exits the printer
through the rear of the printer and is stacked here face up. This is
mainly used for heavy print media. When used in conjunction with
the multi purpose feed tray, the paper path through the printer is
essentially straight. This avoids bending the paper around curves
in the paper path and enables feeding of up to 67 lb. US Bond
(250 g/m²) media.
