Making N in 1 copies or a poster (Page Layout)

The N in 1 copy feature can help you save paper by letting you copy two or four pages onto one printed page.
(MFC-6490CW) The 1 to 2 feature copies one A3 or Ledger size page onto two A4 or Letter size pages. If you use this setting, use the scanner glass.
You can also produce a poster. When you use the poster feature your machine divides your document into sections, then enlarges the sections so you can assemble them into a poster. If you want to print a poster, use the scanner glass.
Important
Make sure paper size is set to Letter, Ledger, A4 or A3.
You cannot use the Enlarge/Reduce setting with the N in 1 and Poster features.
If you are producing multiple colour copies, N in 1 copy is not available.
(P) means Portrait and (L) means Landscape.
You can only make one poster copy and 1 to 2 copy at a time.

Watermark Copy, Book Copy, Sort, Enlarge/Reduce and Skew Adjustment are not available with Page Layout.
