Multipage Printing - Lexmark Optra W810 Reference

Custom paper types
You can use MarkVision or PJL commands to assign names to custom paper types to
identify unique media. First, identify the media type (paper, transparency, card stock, and
so on), and then assign a recognizable name. This lets the printer optimize the print qual-
ity on the media actually being used. The name you assign is truncated to 16 characters.

Multipage printing

When printing proofs or very long documents, you can choose to print multiple pages
(sometimes called n-up printing) on one sheet. The Multipage Print menu item lets you
specify 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, or 16 pages to be printed on a single sheet. If you select the 4 Up
menu item, for example, 4 pages are printed on one sheet. N-up printing conserves paper
and printer supplies, and may reduce the print time necessary for a particular document.
The printer uses the Multipage View, Multipage Order, and Multipage Border settings to
determine the order and orientation (portrait or landscape) of the pages, and whether a
border is printed around each page image. The following figure shows a 4 Up print job in
portrait page orientation, with Horizontal selected as the Multipage Order. Notice how the
page images are paginated from left to right.
