Pages Per Sheet (N-Up) Printing
Version number:

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.

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