Tiling/Poster Printing

The tiling/poster printing function allows you to enlarge image data, divide it into several pages, and print these pages on separate sheets of paper. You can also paste the pages together to create a large print like a poster.

The procedure for performing tiling/poster printing is as follows:

Setting Tiling/Poster Printing

1. Open the

printer driver setup window

2. Set tiling/poster printing

Select Tiling/Poster from the Page Layout list on the Page Setup tab.

The current settings are displayed in the settings preview on the left side of the printer driver.

3. Select the print paper size

Select the size of the paper loaded in the printer from the Printer Paper Size list.

4. Set the number of image divisions and the pages to be printed

If necessary, click Specify..., specify the following settings in the Tiling/Poster Printing dialog box, and then click OK.

Image Divisions

Select the number of divisions (vertical x horizontal).

As the number of divisions increases, the number of sheets used for printing increases. If you are pasting pages together to create a poster, increasing the number of divisions allows you to create a larger poster.

Print "Cut/Paste" lines in margins

To leave out cut lines, uncheck this check box.

• You can also specify the print range by clicking the pages in the settings preview.

5. Complete the setup

Click OK on the Page Setup tab.

In the settings preview on the left of the Page Setup tab, click the pages that do not need to be printed.

The pages that were clicked are deleted, and only the pages to be printed are displayed.

Note

• Click the deleted pages to display them again.

• Right-click the settings preview to select Print all pages or Delete all pages.

2. Complete the setup

After completing the page selection, click OK.

When you execute print, only specified pages will be printed.

Important

• Since tiling/poster printing enlarges the document when printing it, the print results may become coarse.
