Automatically Duplex Print
I'm trying to set a WORD document to automatically duplex print a form. I've
tried the PCL escape code sequence (PRINT 27"&l1S") but the printer spits out an undefined error relating to the PCL code (OFFENDING COMMAND: &l1S). I'm printing to a HP Laserjet 5500dn through a network connection. Any help would be appreciated. |

Press Ctrl+P and click the Options€¦ button on the bottom left-hand corner
check (check boxes) your selection under Options for Duplex Printing. Alternatively you can go to Properties for your printer, one way to do this is to go to Printers and Other Hardware via the Control Panel and click view installed printers or fax printers or at least find the icon of your printer with its name and right click and click Properties, then inside the *your printers name* Properties box, click the Advanced tab, then Printing Defaults button, you should now have three tabs saying Setup, Features, Color. Click the Features tab, now under Document Options you can check the Two-Sided Printing and the other options if you would like. Be sure to reset after though, or all print jobs will come out that way. Please note that printers differ, but for the most part, there should be a Printer Defaults that you can alter, but the first method I described should work just fine. -- Top Notch Admin "Steve K" wrote: I'm trying to set a WORD document to automatically duplex print a form.

Does the printer use a PCL driver in this installation or Postscript?
Obviously the latter would not recognize PCL commands. You may have to add the driver in such circumstances. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Steve K wrote: I'm trying to set a WORD document to automatically duplex print a form.
