Printing Booklets - Xerox Phaser 5550 User Manual

Printing Booklets

With 2-sided printing, you can print a document in the form of a small book. Create booklets
for any paper size that is supported for 2-sided (duplex) printing. The driver automatically
reduces each page image and prints four pages per sheet of paper (two on each side). The
pages are printed in the correct order so that you can fold and staple the pages to create a
booklet.
When you print booklets, you can also specify the creep and gutter in supported drivers.
■ Creep: Specifies how much the page images are shifted outward (in 10ths of a point). This
compensates for the thickness of the folded paper, which otherwise would cause the page
images to shift slightly outward when folded. You can select a value from zero to
1.0 points.
■ Gutter: Specifies the horizontal distance (in points) between the page images. A point is
.35 mm (1/72 in.).

The following additional booklet printing options are available in some drivers:
■ Draw Page Borders: Prints a border around each page.
■ Target Paper Size: Specifies the size of the paper for the booklet.
Right to Left: Reverses the order of the pages in the booklet.
