Binding modes
Binding refers to the manner in which printed pages of paper
are joined together (by gluing, stitching, etc.) in book form.
The two possible types of binding are: long-edge binding, in
which pages are joined together along their long edge; and
short-edge binding, in which they are joined together along
their short edge. In selecting a binding type, you must also
consider the orientation of the printed page. You can use
long-edge or short-edge binding with either landscape or
portrait printing.
Depending on the binding type and print orientation, the
duplexer provides four types of binding. These are: (1)
portrait, long-edge, (2) portrait, short edge, (3) landscape,
long-edge, and (4) landscape, short-edge. The figure below
shows these binding methods.
