Pages Per Sheet (N-Up) Printing

 

The Black Ice Printer Drivers has a built-in feature to print multiple pages onto one sheet. This feature is also known as N-Up printing, and it allow users to print multiple downsized pages onto a single sheet.

 

The major benefits of printing N-Up include more cost-effective paper usage, therefore saving money and reduced wear on printing plates, when printing to physical printers.

 

To setup the N-Up printing, go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers > right-click on the Black Ice Printer Driver > Printing Preferences > Device Settings Tab.

 

 

Click on the Pages Per Sheet (N-Up) Settings button to open the N-Up Printing Settings.
