Paper orientation options for duplex (2-sided) printing

The four paper orientation options are shown and explained on this page.

Figure 4-10

ALong-edge landscape orientation

This kind of layout is often used in accounting, data processing, and spreadsheet applications. With this setup, every other printed image is oriented upside-down so that pages can be flipped through, as for a calendar.

BLong-edge portrait orientation

This is the conventional layout used. With this setup, every printed image is oriented right side up.

CShort-edge portrait orientation

This kind of layout is often used with clipboards. When short-edge binding in portrait orientation is selected, every other printed image is oriented upside-down.

DShort-edge landscape orientation

This layout is a variation that is also used. Each printed image is oriented right side up.
