[opensuse] Printing 4 pages to 1 sheet with horizontally reversed.
Dear my friends.... I want to print any documentation but really space the papers. That's why I like printing 4 pages to 1 sheet on both side of the paper (front and behind) so 1 sheet of paper contents 8 pages. I printed the odd pages (page 1, 3, 5, 7, and so on) on the front side of the papers and I printed the even pages (page 2, 4, 6, 8 and so on) to the behind/rear side of the papers. But the problem comes as... - the page 1 (for instance) does not has the page 2 but the page 4 on its behind-side; - the page 3 (for instance) does not has the page 4 but the page 2 on its behind-side; - the page 5 (for instance) does not has the page 6 but the page 8 on its behind-side; - And the page 7 (for instance) does not has the page 8 but the page 6 on its behind-side. Whereas what I want is: - the page 1 (for instance) has the page 2 on its behind-side; - the page 3 (for instance) has the page 4 on its behind-side; - the page 5 (for instance) has the page 6 on its behind-side; - And the page 7 (for instance) has the page 8 on its behind-side. If I compare to windows printing menu, they have option of "printing 4 pages to 1 sheet with reversed the pages horizontally). So 2-->4-->6-->8 can be 4-->2-->8-->6 . I print the documents with cups and I mine is mandriva2007. Any suggestions how to print with "horizontally reversed"? Thank you very much in advance. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

See "N-Up Printing" at http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/options.html and play around with the "number-up-layout" option. But as far as I know you cannot have a different "number-up-layout" for the front-side pages and the back-side pages except you print them as two seperated jobs.

I don't know which CUPS version there is in mandriva2007. As far as I know the above is only valid for CUPS 1.2 or perhaps 1.3 (and higher). Check your CUPS documentation on your local http://localhost:631/ Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany AG Nuernberg, HRB 16746, GF: Markus Rex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
