Collate
When printing multiple documents such as handouts for meetings, you can separate sets into order. This function is known as "Collate". Collate stores data transmitted from a computer to the machine's memory or hard disk drive.
You can sort up to 2000 pages, and up to 999 copies.
If [Auto Continue] occurs on the first set, Collate will be canceled. For details about [Auto Continue], see "System".
If you make the machine continue printing manually on the first set, Collate will be canceled. For details about making the machine continue printing manually, see "If Error Occurs with the Specified Paper Size and Type".
If the [Ignore Application Collate] check box is cleared in the PCL 5e printer driver or [Application Collate] is selected in the PCL 6 printer driver, the collate settings in the application's [Print] dialog box are applied.
The followings are the two types of Collate.
Collate
Printed output is assembled as sets in sequential order.
Shift Collate
This function is available on type 3 only.
Each job or set is output in separate stacks so you can easily separate them.
This function is also available using the PostScript 3 printer driver.
For details, see the printer driver Help.
