Parameter Option Description
Imposition method Method Provides the following options:
● None—The default option. Imposition parameters are not
available, and the thumbnail viewer does not display an
image.
● Step & Repeat—A technique in which multiple copies of
an image are printed to fill up a large sheet. This method
is used mainly for business cards.
Note: The number of copies is defined according to
pages or sheets.
● Step & Continue—A technique in which different pages
of a job are printed on one sheet according to the
selected layout, so that the sheet is filled to capacity.
● Cut & Stack—A book-finishing technique in which jobs
are printed, cut, stacked, and bound in the most efficient
manner to preserve the original sorting. A job's pages,
booklets, or books are sorted in a Z-shape, (each stack
of pages is sorted in consecutive order). When stacks
are piled one on top of another, the entire job is already
sorted up or down.
● Saddle Stitch—A book-finishing technique in which the
pages of a book are attached through stitching or
stapling in the spine fold—for example, in brochures.
○ Sets per sheet—Enables you to select the number of
sets of the job to print on the defined printable area.
○ Stacking mode for VI—For VDP jobs only. This
option enables you to print two or more different
booklets on the same sheet. The booklets are
arranged in the Cut & Stack method. This option does
not support variable booklet length.
○ Variable Booklet Length—For VDP jobs only. This
opton enables you to print booklets of variable length.
The missing pages are filled in with blank pages (up
to the next number of pages that can be perfectly
divided to 4).
● Perfect Bound—A book-finishing technique in which the
spine fold is trimmed and the edges of the gathered
pages are roughened and glued together—for example,
in hardcover books.
Preview Enables you to view your imposition layout and settings. You
can open the Preview window at any time and keep it open
to check your imposition settings as you select them. The
Preview window dynamically reflects any changes that you
make.
