Note:
This feature is not available for Mac OS X.

Printer settings

Make adjustments to basic settings.
Select 2x1 Poster, 2x2 Poster, 3x3 Poster, or 4x4 Poster as Multi-Page.
Click Settings to adjust the way your poster will be printed. The Poster Settings window opens.
Make the following settings:
Print Cutting Guides
Prints guide lines for cutting.
Overlapping Alignment Marks
Slightly overlaps the panels and prints alignment markers so that the panels can be aligned more precisely.
Trim Lines
Prints border lines on the panels to guide you when trimming the pages.
Note:
If you want to print only a few of the panels without printing the entire poster, click the panels that you do not want to print.
Click OK to return to the Main window.
Click OK to close the printer settings window.
After completing the steps above, print one test copy and examine the results before printing an entire job. Then follow the instructions.
