When Print on Both Sides (Manually) is selected, the document preview image changes to show a spiral binding along either the left edge or the top edge of the page. In addition, a folded-over corner appears in the lower-right portion of the preview image, indicating that printing occurs on the back side. An arrow on the folded-over corner points in the direction that the pages would be flipped if they were bound together.

Short-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by flipping over like the pages of a notepad. Long-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by turning like the pages of a book.

Booklet layout

The Booklet Layout drop-down menu, available when Print on Both Sides (Manually) is selected, offers choices that are based on the current media size. The default setting for the Booklet Printing drop-down menu is Off.

●Left Edge Binding

●Right Edge Binding

Selecting Left Edge Binding or Right Edge Binding changes the document preview image to show the location of the binding. If the Pages per Sheet setting is on the default setting of 1, it automatically changes to 2 pages per sheet. Changing the Pages per Sheet setting manually to 4, 6, 9, or 16 pages per sheet disables the booklet setting.

The Booklet Layout setting is disabled when A6 or B6 (JIS) is selected as the media size, and an incompatibility-error message appears when you click OK to close the printer driver.
