Collating Multiple Copies

When printing multiple copies of a label file 
containing more than one label, all the copies 
of a label are printed before the next label 
starts printing. You can choose to have the 
label file print collated, so each complete copy 
of the file prints before the second copy starts. 
The following example shows three copies of a 
label file containing three labels printed 
normally and collated.
