Quote: "Change orientation of pages by rotating them and compensate for creep with XXX's great *shingling* capabilities."

German translation:"Shingling"
Explanation:
"Schindeln" are shingles, covering a roof. But you write, that your text is about a printer. I don't know exactly, what "shingling" means, but such words are in German often taken directly from English. "to creep" is Kriechen, but I think, it's not about creeping. "to compensate for creep" may be "die Größe ausgleichen" or "die Ausdehnung ausgleichen". Your sentence may be in German: "Ändere die Ausrichtung der Seiten durch Drehung und Ausgleichen der Größe mit den großartigen 'Shingling'-Funktionen von XXX."
