Double sided printing issue

I want to print out a spreadsheet double-sided (to put in a binder) but the back page faces the wrong way. I want to flip it so that the page tiles with the following page so you don't have to flip the notebook around. Any suggestions? I can't find anything in Excel Help.

The direction the content faces isn't determined by Excel, it's determined
by the printer driver. Some printers do allow you to choose direction but
even those which do will not allow mix 'n' match - it's one direction or the
other for all pages in the job.

If you're printer does offer such a choice you'd need to print the last page
as a separate job using the opposite direction option. Check the Print
dialog Copies & Pages list.

No wonder you don't find anything in Excel help, because that's the job of
the printer driver. Look for an option in the printer settings (you don't
say which one it is, so it's hard to tell you exactly where to look),
sometimes identified as stapling corner. There is probably an appropriate
button in the Print dialog to get there.

go to print... menu

if setup similar to Hap there will be a button with copies & pages.
Click on that and you should see two sided printing select that.

I've sent an html message to CyberTaz with a .png screen shot to
demonstrate why print will go opposite directions in fact in the image I
have set for way I print.

you can use that as reference natural your driver may be different look
a little different or worded different.
