Setting

Description

[Print Type:]

Select the print sides of paper.

  • [1-Sided]: The original is printed on one side of paper.

  • [2-Sided]: The original is printed on both sides of paper.

  • [Booklet]: The original is printed in booklet format. The pages in the original data are arranged, spread, and printed on both sides of sheets. When the printed sheets are stacked and folded in two, the pages are arranged in the correct order.

[Binding Position:]

Select the binding position for 2-sided printing.

[Poster Mode:]

The original image is enlarged, divided, and printed on multiple sheets. For example, when you select [2  2], one page of the original is divided and printed onto four sheets. When you join the printed sheets together, a large poster is created.

To create overlap margins, select the [Overlap width line] check box.

Printing originals containing pages of different sizes or orientations in one job may cause images to be partially lost or overlapped.

[Rotate 180]

Select this check box to rotate the original 180 degrees and print it.

[Image Shift]

Select this check box to fine tune (shift) the print position of the image with respect to the paper.

Selecting the [Image Shift] check box displays the [Image Shift] window. Specify the print position in detail.

  • [Front Side]: Specify the upward/downward and rightward/leftward shift distances for the front side.

  • [Back Side]: When you print on both sides, specify the upward/downward and rightward/leftward shift distances for the back side. Selecting the [Same value for Front and Back sides] check box applies the same settings to both sides.

[Chapters]

When you have selected [2-Sided] or [Booklet] in [Print Type:], select this check box if you want to print particular pages on the front side.

In [Page Number] in the [Chapters] window that appears when this check box is selected, specify the page numbers of the pages you want to print on the front side.

To specify multiple page numbers, separate each number with a comma (for example, "2,4,6") or connect the numbers using a hyphen (for example, "6-10").

[Paper Arrangement:]

Select whether to adjust the binding position on two-sided printed sheets collectively after all data items are received or sequentially each time a data item is received.

  • [Prioritize Arranging Papers]: Paper arrangement is performed once after all data items are received. All pages are adjusted under the same conditions.

  • [Prioritize Productivity]: Paper arrangement is performed sequentially while printing the pages.
