Duplex Setting in Macro

[Ole Weigelt]

Hi Everybody,

is it possible to set a HP printer to duplex mode via macro?

I have tried to record a macro and have analyzed it, but no word of duplex
or other printer specific settings.

Any idea?

Thanks a lot

Ole

If your printer reads PCL commands you could also use a PRINT field in the
document.

Sub PrintDuplex()
Selection.Fields.Add Range:=Selection.Range, _
Type:=wdFieldEmpty, Text:="PRINT 27""&l1S"""
End Sub
