Combining Multiple Pages into Single Page

This section explains how to combine multiple pages onto a single sheet of paper. When using the combine printing function, multiple pages can be scaled and combined onto a single sheet of paper.

The combine printing function is not available on a custom size paper. To use the combine printing function, specify the standard size paper.

Create a document using an appropriate application. On the [File] menu, click [Printing Preference...].
When using the existing Custom Setting, click the icon in the [Custom Setting name] box.
If you do not wish to modify the custom settings already registered in the printer driver, change settings such as paper size and source tray as required, and then proceed to step 9.
Click [Add/Change Custom Settings...].
Click the [Edit] tab, if it is not already selected.
Select the [Layout/Poster] check box, and then select the method of combining pages from the list.
Specify the page order by selecting the desired icon.
Change other print settings if necessary, and then click [Save As...]
If you are modifying an existing setting and want to overwrite the previous setting, click the [Save] button and then proceed to step 9.
Specify a name easily recognizable in the [Custom Setting name] box, and then click [OK].
Click [OK] to close the printer preference dialog box.
Print the document using the print function in the application.

If the document contains pages with different original sizes, page break occurs.
If the application you are using has the equivalent function, disable the function in the application. If the function is enabled in the application, undesirable result may occur.
For details about the combine printing such as combining pages with different orientations, see the printer driver Help.
