Printing
Copies
The Copies selection tells Windows how many copies (up to 99)
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.
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.
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.
Orientation
Print orientation may be Portrait or Landscape. Portrait
orientation means the page is taller than it is wide when you view
the printed text upright. Landscape orientation means the page is
wider than it is tall when you view the printed text upright.
