Booklet printing is when you print 2 pages per sheet, fold them and get
a small book. For a 4-page booklet you need 1 sheet of paper printed
both sides with page 1 and 4 on the "front" and page 2 and 3 on the "back".
For bigger documents the page order gets more complicated, which is why
we'd like a program to do the sorting for us. LibreOffice and Adobe
Reader are programs able to do this.
Printing multiple pages per sheet through normal print dialog doesn't do
this sorting, it only puts multiple pages sequentially on sheets of
paper - which is then severely "de-sequenced" once we start folding.
Hope I'm not going too basic here ;-)
All the best,
Alf

In regards to the print dialog offering booklet printing, I do not see
that. I know that some printers come with this feature, so if the printer
can do it then maybe the printer driver installed in Linux knows and offers
that option.
As my printer does not have that feature, I need to do it in software.
I hit print and went to page setup...
When I do that, I get an option to print multiple pages per sheet, but no
booklet printing option.

4 per sheet is what I thought you were going for. You can add more or less.
What is it you are going for? I haven't ever seen a "print booklet"
checkbox, but I can print a booklet using those options...
