@Daryo Right, this part of the content is not intuitive to me and even though I get the concept, I have no idea of the French version for those terms.

"Straight-thru" option on some printer means that whatever your are printing on (paper / cardboard / metal foil / textile ...) goes "Straight-thru" without any bending.

U-turn/J-turn are two variants of how paper gets routed through the printer before being printed on the other side. For someone specialised in printer design the difference is obvious, otherwise finding any explanation is not easy.

It's for a scanner And there is also "Straight-thru" between the other two options (turns)
