Print Preview support of Duplexing
Posted: Tue May 30, 2017 03:37 PM

It seems when I developed a printout that prints of both sides of the paper, if I print directly to the printer all is fine and it prints to both sides of the page, but if I print through the Print Preview it then comes out on one side, two pieces of paper. All this assumes that you are using a printer capable of duplexing. Anybody run into this?

Thanks,

Byron,

This is the way I solved this problem.

I installed my printer twice.
The first printer is defined to print one sided, the second printer is defined to print duplex.

In the print preview you can change the printer. So you can choose if you want to print duplex from the preview or not.

Good luck.

Sounds like a good work-around, i'll give it a try.
