Click [File] - [Print].
Select the [Printer] that you want to send your document to.
If available, you can click the printer driver button to define options that are not available in the [Print] dialogue. You can find this button next to the printer driver.
For example, the printer driver of a color printer can offer color settings which are not supported by PRISMAdirect. If the [Print] dialogue offers all driver settings, then the driver settings button is not added to the [Print] dialogue.
Specify the [Number of sets]. A message can appear behind the number of sets:
[{0} sets printed as 1 copy]
The print file is sent to the printer. The file is printed once.
[{0} sets printed as {1} copies]
The print file is sent to the printer along with an instruction to print the file {1} times.
Specify the [Operator note]. The [Operator note] is displayed on the operator panel, if your printer supports this functionality.
Select the [Print range].
[Split & merge]
[None]
The document is printed on one printer.
[Split]
The printer only prints the marked sheets. For example, you have marked all color sheets in the document. If one side of a sheet is a color page, then the complete sheet is printed on a color printer. The percentage of marked sheets is shown.
When you select option [Split], the document is printed without any finishing settings.
[Merge]
This setting will print your document and insert the marked sheets at the right place in the document.
When you select the [Split] or [Merge] option, you can select:
[Use separate paper trays]
Select this option to allocate a separate paper tray for each type of insert sheet.
So, if you have five different insert sheets in your document, you need at least six paper trays. One paper tray for the normal paper and five paper trays for the insert pages.
If you do not select this option, the different insert sheets must be put in one paper tray. So, if you have two different insert sheets, then put the insert sheets cyclic (1-2, 1-2, ...) in one paper tray.
You can optimize the printing process by configuring the print settings. See the tabs [Media], [Layout], [Image], [Finishing], and [Delivery].
