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.

NOTE

The default binding setting is to bind on the long edge when the page is set up for portrait

orientation. To change to long-edge binding, click the Flip Pages Up check box.
