Abstract
In an apparatus and method for producing simplex prints in a single pass duplex printer, two sheets are conveyed in coinciding relationship through a common path during a print cycle. While the sheets are simultaneously conveyed through the common path, a first toner image is formed on one side of one sheet and a second toner image is formed on an opposite side of the other sheet. The toner images are simultaneously fixed on both sheets by a separate fixing station.
