Note
Trim settings cannot be adjusted to remove less than 2 mm (0.078 in.) or more than 20
mm (0.787 in.) of edge material from the booklet. Adjustments less than 2 mm (0.078
in.) may produce poor trim quality, and adjustments greater 20 mm (0.078 in.) will result
in no trimming to the booklet edge.
Choose the setting that best fits your needs for the booklet output.
