Default When using Word merge, how do you stop overlap of pages?

Send 1-100 then 101-200. You need to send an even number of records.
Alternatively, execute the merge to a new document and then print it part at
a time.

We are merging and printing cards for memberships. It is not the full
page
that reprints, just usually 1 or 2 of the cards per page. In merge
records
we send each run From: 1-99. Then the next run will be 100-199 and so on.
We
do this to stop the printer from jamming. Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks

When using Word merge, how do you stop overlap of pages? We are
merging a
document with 800 pages. When printing a 100 at a time, the last page
will
always reprint in the next 100. We are definitely not reprinting the
same
page. It seems the program does it by itself. Is there anyway to stop
this?
