Oce 3165 - Defining the Location and Size of the Binding Edge

Defining the location and size of the binding edge
Reports are often bound or perforated. In some cases, the margin is not wide
enough so text gets lost when binding or perforating. You can prevent this by
widening the margin using the ‘Margin shift’-function.
Note: The margin can also be narrowed by entering a negative value. This can
be practical when limited space is left at the right side and lower side of the
original.
When printing a 2-sided report, setting a binding edge defines whether the
reader will leaf through the report by turning the pages horizontally or
vertically. In the latter case, even pages are rotated (tumbled) which will result
in a legible report for the reader. Also margins must be set for both page sides
to ensure a faultless binding.
If you are copying originals with landscape oriented information, you should
indicate this to ensure that two consecutive pages are printed in the correct
sequence.
