Double sided Switch cover printing?
(1/1)
hoverboots:
Does anyone have a good method for printing both sides for a Nintendo switch cover?
wiggy:
If you're printer prints 2-sided, then tick the print both sides box in the print menu.

Otherwise print one side, make sure it's centered, flip the page, print other side.
hoverboots:
Got it. Shoulda figured it was that simple. I appreciate not getting a smarmy answer, as deserved as it may have been.
TDIRunner:
I do the same as what Wiggy said, expect for the inside, I make sure it is slightly bigger, or I add a small border around the outside, usually black, but it depends on the color of the inside.  I do this because no matter how much time you spending trying to get both centered, it never works out perfect.  I always cut on the front side because I want it perfect, but the inside usually has a little bit of white (non printed) on one side that didn't line up perfectly.  If you have a small border around the outside, that won't show up.

Oh man, I just had a flashback to 20 years ago struggling to line up double-sided art for custom CD cases. I struggled so much to get those damn things to line up right. A border would have been such a smart move. Thanks for the tip!
