Booklet
The Booklet option allows you to print a document out as
a booklet. If the Print Instruction Page is checked, a page
will print directing you how to insert the paper so that the
booklet prints correctly.
Poster
Choose the Poster option from the Job Finishing
Operations drop down list to enlarge the printed
document. If you check Show Crop Marks, the image
will print with crop marks. The white space around the
image can be easily trimmed.
Handout
Choose the Handout option from the Job Finishing
Operations drop down list to print multiple pages on a
single sheet of paper. If you want to print the document
on both sides of the paper, you can change the binding
edge to change how the image is printed.
Two-Sided Printing
Choose the Two-Sided Printing option from the Job
Finishing Operations drop down box to print the
document on both sides of the paper. If you check the
Print Instruction Page box, a sheet will print describing
how to insert the paper. Selecting the Binding Edge
will print the image in either Portrait or Landscape
mode.
Paper
Use the paper tab to select what size of paper you have
in your printer, the orientation, the number of copies to
print, etc.
You can also reverse the printing order of your
document pages. The first page of your document will
be on top of the stack in the paper exit tray. If you
choose to collate your document, multiple copies of a
multi-page document will be printed such that the
documents are grouped together, rather than the pages.
Document/Quality
The Document/Quality tab controls the paper type,
such as plan, coated, and glossy. It also controls the
quality (resolution) of the printing. Higher resolutions
print better, but take longer and consume more ink.
Advanced
The advanced tab allows you to change how the printer
handles color printing. You should rarely need to
change these settings, if at all.
