Book and Booklet Printing

A book is a print job consisting of at least two pages. It can have a different paper type for the front cover, first page, other pages, last page, or back cover. Use the Covers and Print pages on different paper settings on the Paper/Quality tab to select different paper for the front cover, first page, other pages, and back cover.

A booklet is a print job that places two pages on each side of a sheet that can then be folded into a booklet that is half the size of the paper. Use the Booklet layout drop-down menu on the Finishing tab to control booklet settings.
