Making booklets

You can gain access to the booklet feature in some software programs, such as desktop
publishing programs. See the user guide that came with your program for information about
making booklets.

If you are using a program that does not support booklet making, you can create booklets by
using the HP printer driver.

Note

HP recommends that you use your program to prepare and preview your document for printing,
and then use the HP printer driver to print and saddle stitch your booklet.

Use the following steps to create a booklet by using the printer driver:

Prepare your booklet: Arrange the pages on a sheet (called booklet imposition) to create a
booklet. You can impose your booklet in your software program, or you can use the
booklet-printing feature in printer driver. (See

Gaining access to the printer drivers

for more

information.)

Add a cover: Add a cover to your booklet by selecting a different first page with a different
paper type. You can also add a cover of the same paper type as your booklet. Booklet covers
must be the same size as the rest of the sheets in the booklet. However, the cover can be a
different weight from the rest of the booklet.

Use saddle stitching: Paper must be fed into the MFP short edge first. The MFP prompts you
for rotated paper. The multifunction finisher staples the center of your booklet (called saddle
stitching). If your booklet contains only one sheet of paper, the multifunction finisher folds the
sheet, but does not staple it. If the booklet contains more than one sheet of paper, the
multifunction finisher staples the sheets, and then folds up to 10 sheets per booklet.

The booklet-printing feature of the multifunction finisher supports the saddle stitch and fold
feature for the following paper sizes:

A3

A4-Rotated (A4-R)*

Letter-Rotated (Letter-R)*

Legal

Ledger

See the HP Multifunction Finisher User Guide at

for more information about making booklets.

* A4-R and Letter-R are A4- and letter-size paper that is rotated 90° in the source tray.
