Sometimes you may need to print a large image, but only have an A4 printer available. If you have a Brother printer, you can use the built-in Poster mode to print a larger image across several sheets of A4 paper without needing any additional software.

It’s very easy to do. Open the image you want to print on your computer and click Print. Then select Properties and go to the Basic tab. Scroll down to Multiple Pages and choose the option that suits your project.

For example, selecting 1 on 2 × 2 pages will split the image across four A4 sheets, creating a poster approximately the size of an A2 sheet. Once printed, simply join the four sections together to create your poster.
