Printing multiple pages on one sheet of paper

You can print more than one document page on a single sheet of paper (this is sometimes called 2-up, 4-up, or n-up printing). The pages will appear decreased in size and arranged on the sheet. You can specify that up to 16 pages are to be printed on a single sheet. This feature provides a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to print draft pages, especially when combined with duplex printing (see “Printing on both sides (duplexing)” on page 43).
