Problem printing 2-sided Outlook Calendars
Greetings...
Just upgraded to Outlook 2003... updated my calendar, went to PRINT, and discovered that it no longer prints the blank first page which is necessary for the calendar to read correctly... In other words, the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday entries print on the front of a page, and Thu/Fri/Sat/Sun print on the back. In Outlook 2002, it worked correctly, so that it inserted a blank "odd" page first. I can't find a setting to fix this. Only solution: print everything single sided, then insert a blank page on top, then run it through a sheet-fed copy machine doing a 1- sided to 2-sided batch job... voila... a second generation copy that is still usable. Also, is there any way to print a good old generic calendar style where Saturday and Sunday are not combined on a single column? That really bites for me, because I tend to have more commitments those days than any other. One of the reasons I bought Office2003 was because I was hoping this major problem was fixed, but instead, things seem to only have gotten worse. I appreciate any help you can give. Thanks! --Charles |

Problem printing 2-sided Outlook Calendars
Did you install SP1? It may not fix it, but we do recommend it.
That isn't a printer option is it? Also - until it's determined what the problem is, I would probably print to the office document writer and insert a blank page (printed from word to the office document writer for this purpose) then print the file - less paper waste. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Author, Google and Other Search Engines (Visual QuickStart Guide) Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Join OneNote Tips mailing list: http://www.onenote-tips.net/ Vote for your favorite Outlook and Exchange utilities in the Slipstick Ratings Raffle at http://www.slipstick.com/contest/ "Charles" wrote in message ...

Problem printing 2-sided Outlook Calendars
Yes, I was fully updated. This worked fine under Outlook
2002. Also, I have 2 duplex capable printers, an HP inkjet and a Xerox solid ink... The problem occurs identically on both. The "office document writer" solution worked fine though, even though it is a tiny extra step. I'd never heard of such a thing, it is good to know it exists. Still, 'tis a bug in Outlook 2003, I would say. Thanks for the help... --Charles -----Original Message----- Did you install SP1? It may not fix it, but we do recommend it.

Printing is lacking... and that's being kind.
