Default Properly oriented pages when printing a 2sided trifold brochur

As others have pointed out, none of this terminology is part of Word. The
printer Properties are produced by the printer driver (being able to access
them from Word's Print dialog is just a convenience), and each printer
manufacturer will have different terminology, as you've discovered.

Thanks, Suzanne. What finally worked was going to the "Page Setup" tab
in
the "Canon MP610 series Printing Preferences" window, then choosing
"Long-side stapling (Left) below the checked duplex printing box. So
Canon
would seem to have moved from the original idea of "fliping on the long
edge"
to "Stapling on the long edge."

Office almost always provides a way, but it's not always obvious to the
user
who only gets to some of the features occasionally. I never found it in
the
knowledge base or in "Help."

Best regards,

You'll need to check the duplex settings in your printer Properties.
There's
usually a choice of whether to "flip" on the long or short edge. In
this
case, you need to flip on the short edge.

I've created a nice looking two-sided tri-fold brochure, but when I
print
it
in duplex mode on my printer, one side of the page prints "upside
down."
That is, when the print is right side up on one side, it's reversed
on the
other.

How do I fix this?
