When referring to the EQ-9800/9850 later in this chapter, there are certain common terms that need to be defined for a full understanding of printer operation. These terms include:

• Duplex: Two- sided printing. Both the EQ-9800 and EQ-9850 come with a duplex unit installed standard.

• Paper Feed: This refers to the edge of the paper that is being fed into the printer first. From a front, top-down perspective view of the tray, the paper is fed into the printer through the right-hand side of the printer. The paper may be fed long edge or short edge first.

**For paper that is not a 1:1 ratio, long edge feed should be the default setting. This excludes Folded Cards and 12x18 products.

• Long Edge Feed: The longest edge of the paper is fed into the printer first. For example, with 8.5x11 or A4 paper, the 11 inch side is facing the right-hand side of the printer. This usually refers to a portrait orientation.

• Short Edge Feed: The shortest edge of the paper is fed into the printer first. For example, with 10x7 or A5 paper, the 7 inch side is facing the right-hand side of the printer. This usually refers to a landscape orientation.

• Binding: The edge, long or short, on which the finished product is
  bound. For example, on an 11x8.5 book, the binding is short edge whereas the binding on an 11x8.5 calendar is long edge.

• Booklet Type: Refers to multiple images or layouts being printed on a single side. For example, you can print an 8.5x11 book on 11x17 paper, and fold it in half. This setting can either be two-up portrait or two-up landscape, referring to the orientation of the layouts on the page.

• Scoring: Refers to a pre-made fold/crease in the paper. This paper type is typically used for the folded card and flip book products. Scored products loaded into one of the paper trays should be loaded with the score up, while scored products printed through
  the multipurpose tray should be loaded score down.
