Booklet Printing
When you use this function the printer driver prints the pages in a certain
way so that when folded, the document becomes a booklet.
To use the Booklet function, you must install the optional Duplex Unit
(DX-XXXX).
Note:
The models with built-in duplex support Booklet printing and do not require
installation of an optional Duplex Unit.
After installing the Duplex
Unit into the printer, you must
ensure that the printer driver is configured to use the Duplex Unit.
To
do this, follow the steps below:
- Click the 'Start' button, then click 'Settings', and then 'Printers'.
- Right click the 'Brother HL-7050' series icon and click 'Properties'
- Open 'Accessories' tab
- Click 'Auto Detect' button in the 'Accessories' box, or select 'DX-7000'
from the 'Available Options' box and then click 'Add' button.
- Click the 'Apply' button and then 'OK' button.
