This is not true. Prior versions of Word would save the printer
settings, such as drawer selection, duplex, etc. It overrides the
printer's default settings. This was great. Word 2007 doesn't do this,
at least as far as I know. I'm still searching.
No, you are mistaken. All versions of Word allow you to select a "paper
source" (drawer or tray for "First page" and "Other pages"); none allows you
to select the printer. And enabling (automatic) duplexing must be done in
the printer Properties, not in Word at all.

Unfortunately, no version of Word (so far) has had this much-requested

from the one specified, which would cause a conflict.

Is there a way tosaveprintsettingswithin aWord 2007document? It
would
be nice in some situations to not have to reset everything everytime
go
to
print. Can printsettingsreside in the document itself?
