Having trouble getting graphics to print on correct page

[nacordes]

My first real problem with Office 2007. When I print any document from Word
in landscape, book fold, with the first page blank, the graphic on p. 1
prints on p. 2. In similar docs with graphics on both p. 1 and p. 2, the
graphic for p. 2 prints on p. 1 and vice versa; the graphics on p. 3 prints
on p. 4 and vice versa. Everything shows up great in print preview; docs
just print wrong. Tried starting over, tried changing the pagination (my
docs start w/ a blank p. 0), tried filling p. 0 w/ hard returns instead of
page break, tried other ideas. When I print similar documents in "2 page per
sheet," graphic prints in correct place. Got any idea on how to make Word
2007 work as well as Word 2002 did for printing these docs? I'm willing to
send the docs to someone else to see if the problem can be replicated there.

I can't be much help, but I can "bump" this and hope someone else has a better
idea... FWIW, I'd probably try with a different printer driver, to make sure
it's not a printer-driver problem. Most printers support the old HP standards,
so choosing HP Laserjet II or III can usually give you an idea if the printer
driver is having a problem.

Note that it's not uncommon to have to update both graphics AND printer drivers
for newer versions of Word.

FWIW, Cindy, this problem of graphics appearing on the wrong page in "Book
fold" has been reported by quite a few users of Word 2007 (and 2003, too, I
think). AFAIK, no explanation or solution has been found.
