Print a Booklet

With 2-sided printing, you can print a document in the form of a small booklet. You can create booklets from any paper size that is supported for 2-sided printing.

The print driver automatically reduces each page image and prints four page images per sheet of paper, two page images on each side. The pages are printed in the correct order so that you can fold and staple the pages to create the booklet.

• To locate booklet creation in Windows, on the Document Options tab, click Page Layout.

• To locate booklet creation on Macintosh, in the Print window, in the print options list, click Xerox Features. Within Xerox Features, in the options list, click Booklet Layout.

When you print booklets using the Windows PostScript or Macintosh driver, you can specify the gutter and creep.

• Gutter: Specifies the horizontal distance in points between the page images. A point is 0.35 mm (1/72 in.).

• Creep: Specifies how much the page images shift outward in tenths of a point. Shifting compensates for the thickness of the folded paper, which can cause the page images to shift outward slightly when folded. You can select a value from zero to 1 point.
