HP LaserJet 2300 printer - External Software Technical Reference

Note
If you are making a booklet (as opposed to a book), you can use the Paper tab to select a different first page for
the print job, but the Back Cover minitab is not available. This is because the last page of the print job is printed
when the printer runs the print job, and when the print job is folded into a booklet, the "last" page would in fact fall
in the middle of the booklet.
Pages per Sheet
The Pages per Sheet drop-down menu provides six settings: 1 (default), 2, 4, 6, 9, and 16. If you type another value
into the box (for example, 3), the control will round that value to the nearest valid value (in this example, 4).
Print Page Borders
Related controls indented beneath the Pages per Sheet edit box are Print Page Borders and Page Order, which
become active when Pages Per Sheet is greater than 1.
Print Page Borders sets a line around each page image on a printed sheet to help visually define the borders of each
logical page.
Page Order
The Page Order drop-down menu contains four selections:
•
Right, then Down
•
Down, then Right
•
Left, then Down
•
Down, then Left
The preview document image changes to reflect alterations in these settings, as shown by the examples in the
following illustration.
