Default Word prints the wrong page in a range on a booklet formatted doc

I created a 180 page document on half-letter sized pages which I formatted as
"Bood Fold" or a booklet.

It prints out fine (manual duplex) if you print the entire booklet at once.

But when I try to select one page or one sheet to print, it does not print
the page that I specify in the "range" window. I chose page 89 to print and
it prints out pages 135 and 136 (on opposite sides of the page.

I tried this with the same document on two computers, each with a different
printer, and it does the same thing.

Anybody else encountered this problem and solved it?

Do you have section breaks entered in your document? you might see if "page
86" is really section 86. For that you pring s86 in the "print what" box.

Tamarakay is right for a work around, but I recommend fixing the problem.
But to do so is a tedious method, you have to go to each page or at least the
range of pages where the problems are and correct/re-due the headers and
footers and page breaks. One of those is off and is messing up the
proceeding pages.

There are no section changes in the document. On the 180th and last page of
the document, the page counter in the bottom margin of the Word frame says
that I am in Section 1.

However, I did use page breaks throughout the document. Can page breaks
interfere with the page counter?

It is all one section. There are page breaks but no section breaks.

I appreciate your trying to help me with this, however.
