Printing Booklets
With 2-sided printing, you can print a document in the form of a small b\
ooklet. Create booklets for any paper size 
that is supported for 2-sided printing. The driver automatically reduces\
 each page image and prints four page 
images 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 the booklet.
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 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 point.
Note:
Booklets can be created using 8.5 x 11 in. (A4 210 mm x 297 mm) paper \
and 11 x 17 in. (A3 297 mm x 420 
mm) paper.
