Duplex Printing Landscape
Okay, so what you have is like a calendar. And this means that you are
flipping on the long edge, just the same as if you had a landscape section in a portrait document and wanted the top to the left on each page. This is what you would ordinarily get by default if you choose to flip on the long edge, BUT there are some printers that perversely flip in the opposite direction, and AFAIK there is no way around this except perhaps to get a different driver for the printer. IIRC, the first inkjet I had output landscape pages rotated one way relative to the portrait pages, and when I updated the driver, it rotated them the other way; this was an issue with single-sided printing, but it does illustrate that a different driver might give different results. FWIW, I don't know what you mean by "left-edge binding." I assume you mean "short-edge binding," which will alternate left and right on the "inside" (gutter). From your illustrations, however, it certainly appears that you have all the printer settings correct. You might experiment with the "Options for duplex printing" on the Print tab of Tools | Options, though I believe they have more to do with which side is printed first. From your later posts, however, it seems you've achieved what you were trying for. -- Suzanne S.

I'm a bit confused by talk of "binding", there is no binding. I guess you could think of it in those terms though... Imagine a landscape document, binding at the top. When I flip a page up, I want the reverse side to be the right way up. I can do it in Acrobat Reader, but for some reason Word always prints the second page for left edge binding. |

On the Print tab of Tools | Options (unless you're using Word 2007).

In Word 2007, Office Button | Word Options | Advanced: Print on front/back
of sheet for duplex printing. The unhelpful illustrations have been eliminated, which makes the options even harder to find. -- Suzanne S.
