Figure 4-16 Page-order preview images ■ 2 pages per sheet ■ 4 pages per sheet ■ 6 pages per sheet ■ 9 pages per sheet ■ 16 pages per sheet Document preview image The document preview image is a line-drawn image of a page that represents graphics and text. The document preview image is always oriented so that the contents of the page are right-side-up. The document preview image appears in the upper-right corner of most Printing Preferences driver tabs (the Paper/Quality, Effects, and Finishing tabs). Switching between tabs does not change the location or appearance of the document preview image. When you move the mouse over the document preview image, the mouse cursor changes from an arrow to a gloved hand. You can toggle between portrait and landscape page orientation by clicking the document preview image. Orientation Orientation refers to the layout of the image on the page, and does not affect the manner in which media is fed into the printer. You can specify the orientation of the print job. The three available orientations are portrait, landscape, and rotated. The default orientation is Portrait. NOTE Nearly all software programs establish the orientation for the printed page, so the page orientation in the driver is useful only for the few software programs that do not set an orientation. The Orientation group box contains three options: ■ Portrait. The top edge of the document is the shorter edge of the media. ■ Landscape. The top edge of the document is the longer edge of the media. ■ Rotate by 180 degrees. This creates a landscape or portrait orientation in which the image is rotated 180 degrees. This setting is useful for printing prepunched media. NOTE You can toggle orientation between portrait and landscape by clicking the document preview image. If you select the Rotate by 180 degrees check box, no change occurs in the document preview image. HP unidrivers 204 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5e, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows
