Default Booklet printing Word 2003 on XpPro

If you're using a booklet setting in your printer Properties, then you'll
need to select it there, but if you want to print a booklet directly from
Word, choose "Book fold" under "Multiple pages" on the Margins tab of Page
Setup.

I have a template that works for a 5.5 x 8.5 portrait layout on a letter
sized landscaper paper. The contents is a recipe collection. Two recipes
are
set up with tables for ingredients and another table for directions per
page. With duplex printing 8 recipes will result on one landscape paper.

On an XpPro the Word 2003 booklet is not available in the list of types so
I
choose mirrored and adjusted the margins/gutter.
My Canon pixma printer has the duplex feature as well as the booklet
feature.The printer manual indicates that booklet printing will not work
on
Windows NT. so I wondered if XpPro fits into that classification
In Word 2003 the resulting print has the 2 pages of recipes on the
backside
upside down. In Open Office the same layout and printer produces a correct
duplex result.

After extensive searching on the booklet sites, printing booklets etc. I
wondered why 'booklet' wasn't available as one of the choices in the drop
down menu in Word 2003.

I'm to the point of giving up attempting to print from Word 2003 but I
wondered if there was a work around.
