Publisher 2007 multiple duplex prints problem

[mlungu]

Hi,

When printing a duplex program, A4, it works fine when printing 1. However,
when printing multiple copies it messes it up. It wil put page "1 & 4" on the
one side, and again on the other side, then the next one comes out with page
2 & 3 printed on both sides. This is with automatice duplexing. Works fine in
publisher 2003, the problem started in 2007. The only way around it is to
click print 100 times if we need 100 sets. Is this a know bug and is there a
solution?

Tks

You need to select the Collate option.

You need to select the Collate option.

Hi, I did that already - still the same problem?

I'm not experiencing this when I duplex multiple copies. When you are ready to
print, are you adjusting the options in the print dialogue? I have found in some
cases the print options have to be re-entered.

Hi,

Do you use a printer with a duplexer unit or do you do manual duplexing?

Cheers

I have a HP LaserJet with a duplex unit. I spent part of my morning trying to
duplicate your issue. I used A4 settings.

Hi,

I have tried every setting under the sun and simply cannot get this to work.
Question now is, why does it work fine in Publisher 2003 and not in 2007.
That would indicate a problem with publisher rather than the printer
driver........ What would be the solution here. Asking microsoft to look into
it is probably VERY naive...

What model is your printer? Have you looked at the support documents on the web
site of your printer manufacturer?

Can you send me the file, I will see if it prints okay for me.
