Off*, Auto, and Correction Width (0.000 to 0.392 inches (in increments of 0.001 inches); 0.000* inches)
This setting enables you to adjust the print position of each page when printing a booklet using saddle stitch.
When sheets of paper are folded in half to make a booklet, the edges of the paper protrude more the closer the pages are to the center of the booklet. Margin width at the edges is narrowed, and part of the printing may also be cut off (depending on the number of pages and paper thickness when the edges are trimmed to make them even). Using creep correction to adjust the margin of the gutter can correct such uneven printing (creep).
