Word 2002 page total page count doesn't print correctly

When I place the string "Page X of Y" into the footer of a document, the
proper "total page count" (Y) appears correctly on the screen. When the
document is printed however, the "total page count" prints as the value of
the current page. For example, a three page document's page numbers are
printed as: "Page 1 of 1" for the first page, "Page 2 of 2" for the second
page, "Page 3 of 3" for the third (and last) page. I'm not sure if this is a
Word or print driver issue. I also use this paging numbering scheme on Excel
and it works OK.
