Booklet printing page layout A booklet printer cannot print booklets with an odd number of pages e.g. 6, 10, 14, 18, 22 etc. The pages need to be multiples of four e.g. 4,8,12,16,20,24 etc.

What is a pre-flight check for booklet printing? This is a technical term that means a series of checks have been made to the electronic file that you submit. As an example, your booklet print file will be checked to make sure that all of the images in the file have a correct resolution that is suitable for printing etc. Most printers charge a small fee for this service - it's well worth paying because reprinting a booklet due to errors will cost a lot more.
