PRINTING MULTIPLE PAGES ON ONE PAGE

Overview

This function reduces the print image and prints multiple pages on a single sheet of paper. You can print only the first page in the original size and print multiple reduced pages on the subsequent sheets.
For example, when [2-Up] (2 pages per sheet) or [4-Up] (4 pages per sheet) is selected, the following print results will be obtained, depending on the selected page order.
This is convenient when you want to print multiple images such as photos on a single sheet of paper, and when you want to conserve paper. When used in combination with 2-sided printing, this function saves more paper.

  • Note the following when printing multiple pages on one sheet:
    • The page orders for 6-Up, 8-Up, 9-Up, and 16-Up are the same as for 4-Up.
    • In a Windows environment, the page order can be viewed in the print image in the printer driver properties window.
    • In a Macintosh environment, the page orders are displayed as selections.
    • In a Macintosh environment, the number of pages that can be printed on a single sheet is 2, 4, 6, 9, or 16. Printing 8 pages on one sheet is not supported.
The function for printing only the first page in the original size can be used only when the PCL6 or PCL5c printer driver is installed.
