Page Printing Order

edited September 2014 in General
I've noticed that every time I print a report the pages are printed in reverse order.

For example: If I have a four page report the pages print in this order:

Page 4
Page 3
Page 2
Page 1

Is this normal? Is there a way to print Page 1 first then Page 2, Page 3 etc...?

    Do you have some odd collation turned on in your printer settings?

    I'm not sure how you'd actually get RB to do that.

    What version of RB and Delphi are you using - and how are you feeding
    it data (DBPipeline, JITPipeline etc)?

    Ed,

    I reversed the "Page Order" option and everything is fine.

    I have an HP Photosmart 7550. Under the Advanced tab there are Layout Options. The Page Order was set to Front to Back. I changed it to Back to Front and it prints as expected.

    I assume Front to Back means the end result. It sounds backwards if you ask me.

    Thanks again!

    NP.

    Sounds backward to me too!

    I looked it up -here's HP's definition of "Front to Back":

    "Prints the last page of the document first, so that the first page of
    the document is on top of the finished print job."


    Still sounds backward to me, but if I squint and shake my head I can
    sort of see it...
