HP LaserJet Professional P1100/P1560/P1600 Series Printers - Software Technical Reference

NOTE: Transparency, Labels, Envelope, and Vellum paper types cannot be duplexed with P1600
series products, either automatically or manually. Selecting any of these paper types makes the Print
on both sides option unavailable on the Finishing tab.
Flip pages up
Use the Flip pages up check box to specify the duplex-binding option. By default, the Flip pages up
check box is not available. It is available only when Print on both sides is selected. The following table
demonstrates the results of selecting this check box, depending on the paper orientation selected on
the Finishing tab.

Portrait Short-edge binding Long-edge binding
Landscape Long-edge binding Short-edge binding
When Print on both sides is selected, the document preview image changes to show a spiral binding
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-edge binding is for print jobs with pages that read by flipping over like the pages of a calendar.
Long-edge binding is for print jobs with pages that read by turning like the pages of a book.
Booklet Printing
The Booklet Printing: drop-down menu, visible when Print on both sides is selected, offers choices
that are based on the current paper size. The default setting for the Booklet Printing: drop-down menu
is Off. The other settings have the following format, where [paper size] depends on the paper size that
is set on the Paper/Quality tab:
●
Left Edge Binding
●
Right Edge Binding
When you select Left Edge Binding or Right Edge Binding, the document preview image changes to
show the location of the binding. If the Pages per sheet: setting is on the default setting of 1, it
automatically changes to 2 pages per sheet. If you manually change the Pages per Sheet setting to
4, 6, 9, or 16 pages per sheet, the Booklet Printing: is disabled. See
Pages per sheet on page 226
for more information.
Book and booklet printing
The product supports book and booklet printing.
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 paper. Use the Booklet Printing: drop-down menu on the
Finishing tab to control booklet settings.
NOTE: Booklet folding is a manual process. The product does not fold.
