Duplex

rbuser

Hello,

RB 10.06, Delphi 2007

We are experiencing the following problem as soon as a report has been
designed to be printed in duplex, i.e. the "duplex" setting in page
properties is activated:

- The back page is printed first, then the front page
- We use pre-printed forms, and this setting results in the front page
text being printed on the back of the paper and vice versa

Flipping around the paper is no solution, as simplex printing would then
print on the back page.

We'd be happy to see a solution for this. Thank you in advance.

Best wishes
Bernhard

Hi Bernhard,

This is not a known issue. ReportBuilder uses the duplex options given by
the Windows API. Check your printer driver settings to be sure it is not
causing this behavior. Do you perhaps have your printer driver set to print
pages last to first? Have you tried changing between horizontal and
vertical duplexing?

I also recommend updating your version of ReportBuilder to 10.09. Contact
info@digital-metaphors.com with your serial number and purchasing email
address for upgrade instructions.

In addition to Nico's suggestions,

1. Try downloading the latest printer driver from the manufacturers web
site. Unisntall the existing driver and reboot. Then install the new driver.
Checkt the driver config options for any duplex related settings.

2. Test printing duplex from some other applications such as MS Word or
Wordpad.
