Duplex printing

[Laurie]

I am a new publisher user attempting to print on 11x17 paper and duplexing a newsletter (Printer HP ColorLaser Jet 8500N) - I cannot get it to duplex and and print the pages correctly - I selected everything correctly in the page set up and the printer is set to duplex. It is printing the 4 pages on one side of the 11x17. Any help?

Buy a quality brand of printer and you will have no problems.

HP fail to fix their printer drivers and once they have your money you are
stuck with the lemon printer.

There are no printing issues in any version of Publisher.

Make sure you set the settings in the printer driver to 11x17, and then Page
Setup to Booklet.

Thanks for the suggestions - I did get it to duplex now it is a problem selecting the right tray - I have 11x17 selected but it is still printing from the 8/12 x 11. Messing up the test. I will continue to try and tweek. Thanks.
