Booklet Modes
The booklet mode can be selected using the following options.
The booklet mode applies only for the PostScript data. Performing the booklet printing using the PCL data is invalid.
In a job, if this value is LT, and in PDL too the data are for LT paper size, this will result in a scaled booklet on Letter
paper. In a job, if this value is A4, and in PDL the data are for A5 paper size, this will result in a tiled booklet on A4
paper.
When the Booklet Mode options is selected, the paper size is automatically set to the same size as for Booklet Mode.
This function is only available for A4 and Letter paper sizes.
If the booklet mode is selected, then duplexing is also selected automatically (sduplex). Setting duplexing separately
can override the booklet mode setting for duplexing.
Example: The command to select Letter size paper for the booklet printing mode is “lp –o booklet=letter <filename>”.
