Printing Booklets

With two-sided printing, you can print a document in the form of a small book. Create booklets for any paper size that is supported for 2-sided (duplex) printing. The driver automatically reduces each page image by 50 percent and prints two pages per sheet of paper. The pages are printed in the correct order so that you can fold and staple the pages to create a booklet.

When you choose to print booklets, you can also specify the creep and gutter in both Windows 98 and Windows Me drivers. The gutter is the horizontal distance from the fold to the page image (in points). The creep is the distance that page images are shifted inward (in 10ths of a point); this compensates for the thickness of the folded paper, which otherwise would cause the inner page images to shift slightly outward.
