Says on ticket print A4 landscape BUT does not clarify of needs to be in colour (which I personally think is poor and the club could do more to clarify this too) from past experience I've gained entry with black and white not colour A4 folded tickets.
If you print make sure you print A4 because if you reduce the size it wont pick up the code that has to be inserted into the scanner.
To add to George's post, I note that on the ticket it states A4 LANDSCAPE. Most printers will be set to A4 portrait by default, so people may need to tinker with their printer settings.
Unlike those companies I grumble about, I won't assume prior knowledge. Landscape is where the left-to-right distance is greater than the top-to-bottom distance (and 8 o'clock is where the big hand is on the 12 and the little one on the 8)
So if anyone is unfamiliar with resetting their printer, I suggest you print the ticket well in advance in case you struggle. I realise this will be trivial for most of us, but even some people who use computers regularly may only print rarely.

Mine appears to have printed landscape automatically, but that might be because I have a relatively new printer and keep the software and drivers up to date. If someone has an older printer and/or older drivers for it, this may not be the case. Heck, the first bubblejet printer I had (early-mid 1990s), I had to go under a panel and stick a biro in to alter some of the dip switches - after checking in the manual to see which switches did what.
Much easier just having the ticket QR code on your phone, can zoom in to it and easily scan. Atleast getting 35,000+ into wembley will be 10x quicker than getting 5000 into the broadfield stadium

Possibly better to take both methods in case one fails.

The QR code is in black and white, so shouldn’t matter whether the rest of the page is in colour or not.
