I wrote a book on printing and word processing several years ago and am a
little sympathetic to Paul. I am certain that he sets up pages and prints
them one at a time, and the duplex driver never sees the next page as a
duplex print job.
I downloaded a free program called Cute PDF Writer. It is a very useful
program for many reasons. One, is you can print a pdf file of your complete
log without wasting a single piece of paper and have it properly formatted
to read next year or ten years from now. This file is much more useful than
the standard print to file command. Now if you want to print the pdf file
of your log, your Windows driver for your duplex printer will see it as a
number of sheets to print front and back and viola, 2 page printing of your
DX4WIN logbook. I always print in landscape for the pdf file and when you
print on paper, it will still be nicely formatted in landscape mode.
p.s. Jos, it is primarily a cw log, and quite a bit longer than one sheet.

I am having a problem with DX4WIN being able to use my HP model 8250 two
sided printing. It will not print on two sides from DX4WIN. Even after I
select preferences and set it for automatic two sided printing.
It's not the printer as it prints documents from Word on two sides just
fine.
I'd like to print on two sides to conserve paper.
Is there a work around?
Thanks.
George
------------------
I think this has been reported several times before with HP and other
printers. The default on my printer is also set to two sided but DX4WIN
insists on printing only one side. Hopefully the DX4WIN developers are
listening and can make the necessary fix.
