How to print a booklet

The Booklet setting lets you print multiple pages in booklet form without having to re-format your document so the pages print in the proper order. The pages print so that the finished collated document may be folded along the center of each page to form a booklet.

If the document contains many pages, a booklet may have too many pages to fold easily. If you are printing a fairly large booklet, you might want to use the Sheets per Bundle option to specify how many physical pages are put into one bundle. The printer will print the necessary number of bundles, which you can then bind into one booklet. Printing in bundles helps the outside edge of the pages line up more evenly.

You must specify whether or not you want to print using any Duplex printing options before you select to print using the booklet function. Once you choose Print Using Booklet, the controls for the Duplex options are unavailable and remain at the last setting used.
