• Booklet Printing
The driver will print the document as two images per
sheet, landscape orientation. However, it rearranges
the page images so the sheet of paper can be folded to
be read as a left-to-right book.
The standard booklet format has the first page as the
left-most page. The Right-to-Left control, if checked,
will print the booklet with the first page as the
right-most page.
On a folded sheet of paper with two page images, the
horizontal distance from the fold to either page image
is called the gutter. The Gutter control allows you to
set this distance to zero, fifty, one hundred, or 150
dots.
When you fold several pages into a booklet, the
thickness of the paper forces the page image of the
inner pages to shift slightly outward. The Creep
control allows you to choose a number of dots by
which to shift the page images inward to compensate
for the thickness of the paper. You can choose any
value from zero to twenty.
