Default Mirrored Margins - They are backwards. Can you reverse in 'printview'?

Another problem that seems to be stumping me...

The default print view in Word 2007 shows the pages backwards when using "mirrored margins." In other words, when viewing facing pages the 'odd page' is on the left and visa versa so that the "outside margins" are actually on the inside of the view.

Is there a way to reverse the print view? In print preview the facing pages are correct; I would like it as in print preview view when I can edit it.

No, Print Preview is the only way to get facing pages. That's what Print
Preview is for. And you do know, don't you, that you can edit in Print
Preview (turn off the Magnifier).
