Creating a Binding Margin

Follow the procedure below to print with a binding margin. If you create a binding margin, it is offset from the document margin set from the application.

Note

  • Since the margin opposite the binding margin will be shifted toward the paper edge, be sure to make this margin wide enough when making the document.

  • If a binding margin is set in an application, do not make this setting in the printer properties. This would result in a binding margin twice as wide as expected.

  1. Open the file you want to print from the application, and then open the printer properties dialog box.

  2. Click the [Edit] tab.

  3. Select the [Header/Footer/Adjust image position/Binding margins] check box.

  4. Click [Details...].

    The [Header/Footer/Adjust Image Position/Binding Margins] dialog box appears.

  5. In the [Adjust Image Position] area, select the direction in which you want to shift the print area in the [Direction:] list.

    Note

    • Margins (top, bottom, left, right) change according to the selected direction.

  6. Enter a binding margin width, and then click [OK].

    Note

    • To change the measurement unit, click [Measurement Unit...].

  7. Make the necessary settings, and then click [OK].

    The printer properties dialog box closes.

  8. Make print settings, and then click [OK].
