Combining Multiple Pages into Single Page

This section explains how to print multiple pages onto a single sheet. The combine printing function allows you to economize on paper by printing multiple sheets at reduced size onto a single sheet.

For the PCL 6 printer driver:

  1. After creating a document, open the [Printing Preferences] dialog box in the document's native application.

    The [Printing Preferences] dialog box appears.

  2. To use an existing One Click Presets, click the [One Click Presets] tab, and then click the [2 on 1] icon in the [One Click Preset List:] box.

    If you do not wish to modify a custom setting that is already registered in the printer driver, change settings such as paper size and source tray as required, and then proceed to step 8.

  3. Click the [Detailed Settings] tab.

  4. In the [Menu:] box, click the [Edit] icon.

  5. In the [Layout:] list, select the combination pattern from the list.

  6. Change any other print settings if necessary.

  7. To save current setting in the One Click Preset List, click [Register Current Settings...]. Enter a name and comment that describe the setting, and then click [OK].

    The newly registered icon appears in the [One Click Preset List:] area.

  8. Click [OK] to close the [Printing Preferences] dialog box.

  9. Print the document using the print function in the document's native application.

For the PCL 5c printer driver:

  1. After creating a document, open the [Printing Preferences] dialog box in the document's native application.

    The [Printing Preferences] dialog box appears.

  2. In the [Layout:] list, select the combination pattern from the list.

  3. Change any other print settings if necessary.

  4. Click [OK] to close the [Printing Preferences] dialog box.

  5. Print the document using the print function in the document's native application.
