Boolean	true to collate the printed document; otherwise, false

Property Paths

You can access this nested property as listed below:

Library	Object Type	Path to Collate
Cross-Platform Class Library	PrintDocumentEventArgs	.PrinterSettings .Collate
Office File API	PrintOptions	.PrinterSettings .Collate
	PdfPrinterSettings	.DXSettings .Collate

Remarks

Collating allows you to print multiple copies of documents in sequential order (1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3), rather than mass printing page by page (1-1-1, 2-2-2, 3-3-3).

The printer can collate pages only when the number of copies is greater than 1. Set the Copies property to specify the number of copies to print.
