Printing Multiple Sets of Copies
Specifying the number of copies ([Copies:])
In [Copies:] in [Copies & Pages], specify the number of copies you want to print.
When you print a large number of copies, use of the Proof Print function will prevent a large number of misprints being created, thereby reducing the amount of waste paper generated. For details, refer to [Making a Trial Printing (Proof Print) ] .
Printing by sets ([Collate]/[Offset])
When multiple sets of copies are printed, the paper output position of each set is staggered to help you locate the first page of each set.
When the [Collate] check box in [Output Method] is selected, copies are output in a set-by-set manner, for example, "Pages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5", "Pages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5", and then "Pages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5". When the [Offset] check box is selected, the sets are output in staggered layers.
When you select both [Collate] and [Offset] check boxes, the output position is staggered for each set, allowing you to easily prepare handouts.
