along either the left edge or the top edge of the page. In addition, a folded-over corner appears in the
lower-right portion of the preview image, indicating that printing occurs on the back side. An arrow on
the folded-over corner points in the direction that the pages would be flipped if they were bound together.
Short-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by flipping over like the pages of a calendar.
Long-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by turning like the pages of a book.

cover, first page, other pages, last page, or back cover. Use the Front Cover, First Page, Other Pages,
Last Page, and Back Cover settings on the Paper/Quality tab (available when you select the Use

back cover. For more information, see

A booklet is a print job that places two pages on each side of a sheet that can then be folded into a
booklet that is half the size of the media. Use the Booklet Layout drop-down menu on the Finishing
tab to control booklet settings.
