Making Copies for Use as a Booklet (Booklet)

For instructions on this procedure using the Regular Copy Basic Features screen, see "Booklet Mode."


Remark
  • The 2-Sided Original mode is available only if the optional Feeder (DADF-U1) is attached (standard equipped for the iR3245/iR3235 in some regions).
  • Saddle stitching is not performed when there is only one sheet.
  • Saddle stitching can be performed only if the optional Saddle Finisher-AE2 is attached.
  • The accuracy of folds created in the Saddle Stitch mode may vary, depending on the paper type and the number of sheets.
  • Make sure to place originals with a vertical (portrait) orientation vertically. If these originals are placed horizontally, the even numbered pages will be printed upside down.
  • When printing on special types of paper, such as heavy paper or transparencies, be sure to correctly set the paper type, especially if you are using heavy paper. If the type of paper is not set correctly, it could adversely affect the quality of the image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become dirty, or the paper could jam, and a service repair may be needed.
