The Poster feature lets you create a document to a size that is larger than the paper your printer can support. You can print a poster, or banner, up to 25 times larger than the original document. Segments of the poster document are printed on several sheets of paper and with the assistance of poster settings, you can reassemble the sheets easily to create a poster.
Use Sheets per page to select the poster size in relation to the original document size. Each option shows the number of sheets to be printed and the maximum poster size.
When Poster is selected, other Layout tab options are unavailable.
Note: Sheets per page displays the unit of measurement in inches or millimeters. You can change the Units setting in the User Settings dialog box, accessed from Device Settings.
