How to print multiple page images on one page (N-up printing)

How to print multiple page images on one page (N-up printing)

The Multipage Printing (N-up) setting is used to print multiple page images on a single page. For example, 2-Up means two page images are printed on one page, 4-up means four page images are printed on one page, and so on.

The printer uses the Multipage Order, Multipage View, and Multipage Border settings to determine the order and orientation of the page images, and whether a border is printed around each page image.

1From the computer’s software application, select File Æ Print.

2Click Properties (or Options, Printer, or Setup, depending on the application) to view the printer driver settings.

3From the Page Layout tab, select the number of images per sheet (from the Multipage printing section) and the orientation you would like the paper to have.

The positioning depends on the number of images and whether the images are portrait or landscape in orientation.

For example, if you select 4-Up multipage printing and portrait orientation, the results differ depending on the Multipage Order value you select:
