(Reverse is available only when Printer default is not selected in Basic > Destination.)

Multiple pages per sheet This icon changes between Off, 2, and 4 for the number of pages printed on one sheet. For more than 4 pages per sheet, define these settings in Layout > Multiple pages per sheet. Edit Quick Print This button lets you select the print option icons to display and in what order when you access the Quick Print tab. The Edit Quick Print button is not available when the driver is accessed from an application's Print dialog box. Any basic print options can be Reset to the default values in the Quick Print tab. This button only appears when it is accessed from an application's Print dialog box. The following sections describe some of the Quick Print tab options in more detail. Color Mode and EcoPrint can be found in the Basic and Imaging tabs. Collate, and Duplex printing can also be found in the Basic tab. Multiple pages per sheet in the Layout tab. The Profiles options are accessed from Printing Preferences. Color Mode Color mode lets you choose full-color printing (CMYK) or printing with black toner only. When the selection appears in color, all color settings in the driver are enabled. Color cannot be chosen if Black & White mode is selected in the Device Settings > Administrator Settings > Lock Settings. Collate Collate specifies the order in which the pages of a multiple copy job are printed. With Collate selected, the first time the print job is sent to the printing system the data is rendered as page images in the printing system's memory. The remaining job copies are printed from the stored data. This avoids the extra processing involved in sending every copy from the computer to the printing system. With Collate selected, the driver prints the complete job set by set. With Collate cleared, it prints each page by set. For example, with Collate selected, three copies of a five-page document output as pages one through five in succession, three times. The printer driver automatically overrides the application's Collate setting and uses the printer driver setting. You can use the application's Collate setting by clearing the Ignore application collation check box in the Compatibility Settings dialog box accessed from Device Settings. 3-2 User Guide
