Windows Special Feature
Booklet Printing 


The Booklet feature (available only for Windows 3.1 and Windows 95/98 users) streamlines and simplifies the process of creating a booklet. Booklets have two reduced-size pages on each side of the sheet. The SuperScript 870 Windows Printer Driver prints the pages in the correct order so that all you need to do is fold the printed pages in half.

The driver will print the first side of the booklet pages, then pause for you to reinsert the pages into the printer. Optionally, the driver will print an instruction sheet and/or provide on-screen instructions to help you reinsert the pages correctly. 


How To Print A Booklet:
  1. Click the Booklet Printing button. The Booklet Printing dialog box appears.
  2. Select the Booklet paper size you want to use from the list of Booklet Sizes.
  3. To get on-screen instructions for Booklet printing, select Display Booklet printing tips.
  4. When your booklet printing settings are complete, click OK. If you selected on-screen instructions, read the instructions and click OK.
  5. When you choose a booklet paper size, 2-Sided printing is automatically turned on.
  6. In the Windows program you want to print your booklet from, prepare the booklet document. Set margins and fonts as you want these to appear in the booklet.
  7. Important: In your Windows program, select the Booklet paper size you want to use. (You must complete this step in order for your document to print as a booklet.)
  8. When ready, print your document as you normally would. The printer driver will print the first side of the booklet pages, with an instruction sheet. You may print to either the Main output tray or the rear Face-up output tray.
  9. After the first side is printed, the printer will pause and wait for you to reinsert all the pages back into the Manual feed tray, or the Multi-purpose tray, according to directions on the instruction sheet. Press the Operator panel button.
  10. When finished printing, you can fold the pages to complete the booklet.
