A printed sheet handling system and method for use with lazy-portrait narrow-end to narrow-end (LPEE) formatted pages web printed pages to produce document sets includes: a printer to print LPEE formatted paired document pages printed in 1 to N order and face up on a first half of the web and printed in N to 1 order and face down on a second half of the continuous web; a slitter that divides the LPEE formatted printed web into two streams of sheets, with one in 1 to N order and the other in N to 1 order; collecting both streams into separate stacks; flipping the N to 1 stack of sheets; and then withdrawing sheets from the tops of both stacks for cutting into pages, collating, and assembly into correctly aligned and page number-sequenced document sets.
