PRINTING
14 - 5
Copies
The Copies selection tells Windows how many copies you want to print
from a software application.
This setting is independent of the “copies selection” that may be available
within the print menus of your software application.
Do not use the two selections simultaneously.
Collate
In multiple page jobs that are uncollated, several copies of Page 1 are
printed followed by several copies of Page 2, followed by several copies
of Page 3, etc. For example, for 2 copies of a 3 page document, the MFC
prints Page 1, Page 1, Page 2, Page 2, Page 3, and Page 3 in order.
In multiple page jobs that are collated, a complete set of pages in a job
are printed followed by another complete set of pages. For example,
printing 2 copies of a 3 page document, the MFC prints Page 1, Page 2,
Page 3, then Page 1, Page 2, and Page 3 in order. In this case, the MFC
starts printing after processing all the print data so that it takes a longer
time for collated printing than uncollated printing.
Reverse Order
The MFC normally prints Page 1 and ejects it face-up so that the
following pages are stacked on top of previous pages. (Page 5, Page 4,
Page 3 ..... Page 1) When you want to get correct-ordered printouts, use
this function. The MFC spools the job in your computer and sends the
data starting from the last page to the printer. Since the MFC prints from
the last page forward, the printouts are stacked Page 1, 2, 3, ...Page 5.
Please note that this function takes more time.
