1. Long-edge landscape

This layout is often used in accounting, data processing, and
spreadsheet programs. Every other printed image is oriented
upside-down. Facing pages are read continuously from top to
bottom.

Each printed image is oriented right-side-up. Facing pages are
read from top to bottom on the left page, and then from top to
bottom on the right page.

3. Long-edge portrait

This is the default setting, and the most common layout used,
with every printed image oriented right-side-up. Facing pages
are read from top to bottom on the first page, and then from
top to bottom on the second page.

4. Short-edge portrait

This layout is often used with clipboards. Every other printed
image is oriented upside-down. Facing pages are read
continuously from top to bottom.

Options for binding two-sided printing jobs

Before printing a two-sided document, use the printer driver to select the binding. Long-edge or book
binding is the conventional layout used in book binding. Short-edge or tablet binding is the typical
calendar binding.
