uncollated
Pages out of order
Uncollated describes pages or documents that have not been arranged in proper sequence.
Photocopies or printouts come out uncollated when each complete set isn't gathered in order: The copies came out uncollated, so we had to sort them by hand.
In bookbinding, uncollated signatures haven't been checked against the intended page order.
