Duplex enhancement

edited October 2006 in General
In the 10.04 upgrade, the following was listed as an enhancement:
Enhanced printing duplexed copies, a new print job will be created for
each copy.

This has changed the way one of my reports prints. I had setup the
printer to send the multiple copies to different paper trays. Is there
a way I can turn this enhancement off?

Thanks,
Nick

    Sorry about breaking your code. The intent of the change is to ensure that
    when duplexing collated copies, the second copy does not start on the back
    of the last page of the first copy.

    The change was made to ppPrnDev.pas, the TppPrinterDevice.CheckEndJob
    method. Simplest option for turning the enhancement off is to modify the
    source code - just comment the few relevant lines.

    For the next release, I will modify the solution so it does not start a new
    print job. Instead if the report is duplexed with collated copies, it will
    generate a blank page if the last page of the report is odd.
