Binding Printed Sheets
You can use the various functions to finish the printed sheets as a book.
Select a combination of functions to bind the printed sheets as needed.
Types of Binding
The machine cannot fold or saddle stitch the printed pages. After printing originals using the magazine function, fold and saddle stitch the printed pages by hand.
Magazine
Arrange four original pages as shown below and print them on a sheet. Stack all printed sheets and fold them in half to arrange the pages in the order of the page numbers.
Staple the stacked sheets in the center to finish as a booklet.
Magazine and Combine
You can arrange multiple pages of originals on a page of a bound book printed by specifying Magazine.
Functions for Binding

You can insert front and back cover sheets in the printed sheets. Paper for the cover sheet is fed from a different tray from that of the main paper. You can use paper of a different quality for the cover sheet.
The cover sheet function is available on the Windows printer driver.
The first to second pages and the last page of a document can be printed as the cover sheets.
You can insert a blank cover sheet.
